Welcome

A community working together for all children to succeed in school and in life. In Athens, Family Connection and Communities In Schools are the same organization. We are a partnership of ninety organizations working with families to research the needs of children and families in our community, and to work together to address those needs. Athens-Clarke County Family Connection Partnership is the official planning and coordinating body for services for children and families in our community.
