Heart of Forge: Atlanta Team Helps the Georgia Center for Child Advocacy

 For this Heart of Forge spotlight, we are thrilled to highlight our Atlanta office! Last month, members of our Forge Consulting, Advocacy Trust, and Advocacy Wealth teams spent the morning with Zobida Dat and Jenifer Hossler from the Georgia Center for Child Advocacy (GCCA). Together, they assembled goodie bags for GCCA’s upcoming Trunk or Treat event. We stuffed bags full of fun surprises and encouraging notes for kids and their families.


The Georgia Center for Child Advocacy supports sexually and physically abused children through prevention, intervention, therapy, and collaboration. These services are provided at no cost to children who reside in or were abused in DeKalb or Fulton County. GCCA equips adults and youth with awareness, prevention education, and resources to take action.

To learn more about the life-changing work that the Georgia Center for Child Advocacy does or to get involved, head to their website at https://georgiacenterforchildadvocacy.org/.
