We are working to establish the GVUW as a valued leader and resource for local, state, and federal government representatives by:

1

Advocating for legislation that meets the critical needs of South Georgia's most vulnerable populations.

2

Ensuring that state and federal dollars are distributed to GVUW partner agencies, other nonprofits, and community organizations.

3

Creating awareness of issues that improve our community through education, income stability, and health and wellness initiatives that serve as building blocks for better lives and stronger communities.
