Brand New Logo... Same Commitment to Building a Region of Resilience

We’re excited to introduce our refreshed logo, a vibrant, trauma-informed symbol that reflects our unwavering commitment to building resilience across Northwest Georgia. With three branches representing capacity building, community awareness, and systems change, and 15 leaves honoring our regional collaboratives, the design is rooted in place and purpose. The Blue Ridge-inspired imagery and brand-aligned colors (Dark Blue for stability, Greens for growth, Azure and Turquoise for emotional depth, and Vivid Yellow Green for hope) create a cohesive visual language that supports emotional safety and inclusivity. Though the look is new, our mission remains the same: transforming systems and strengthening communities through shared understanding and collective care.

Fostering Resilience in Northwest Georgia

The Building a Region of Resilience Initiative is a grant-funded project supported by Resilient Georgia, focused on strengthening communities across northwest Georgia. Led by Georgia Family Connection Collaborative organizations in northwest Georgia, this initiative is committed to transforming outcomes for children and families through capacity-building, awareness, and systems change. Organized as a collective impact initiative, the collaboratives work together to assess, plan, implement, and evaluate the work of the initiative.

We center our work on individuals navigating the crisis of poverty and the impact of complex trauma — recognizing that true resilience begins with equitable systems and shared understanding.

Through 101 workshops and evidence-based trainings grounded in trauma- and poverty-informed practices, we’re building a common language that empowers communities and partners to collaborate more effectively.

Together, we’re shaping a more connected, compassionate, and resilient region — for today and generations to come.

Growing Resilience Through Understanding

When we deepen our understanding of the root causes of poverty — especially generational poverty — we begin to see our neighbors not through the lens of deficiencies, but through shared humanity. This awareness opens the door to meaningful connection, empowering us to break cycles and nurture resilience in our communities.

Trauma-informed insight enables professionals, organizations, and coalitions to more effectively recognize and respond to the complex needs of children, caregivers, and families. As our understanding grows, so does our capacity to lead with empathy, compassion, and intentional care — laying the groundwork for lasting, systemic change.

Our Theory of Change - We build resilience by implementing trauma and poverty-informed Capacity Building, Community Awareness, and Systems Change.

Our Common Language

Support us in building a common language to address poverty and trauma in our communities.

When we speak the same language, we are better able to collaborate and ensure we are on the same page as we build resilience in our families and communities.

Common or shared language refers to the vocabulary, terms, and words used to describe the key issues, areas of focus, or frameworks for a collaborative effort.

In the Building a Region of Resilience initiative, our common language refers to the terminology we use to describe trauma, poverty, resilience, and our collective approach to addressing them. By using a common language, we hope to reduce barriers to understanding and foster productive conversations that lead to solutions and systems change.

The Building a Region of Resilience Initiative is a Resilient Georgia, grant-funded project. To learn more about our funders, visit them online at: https://www.resilientga.org/
