Presbyterians for a Better Georgia Advocacy Training

Presbyterians for a Better Georgia and Vulnerable Georgians Need Your Voice

By Rev. David Lewicki, Pastor, North Decatur Presbyterian Church

This year’s Georgia General Assembly is a very important session because the state has the largest ever ($16 Billion) surplus of state funds that should be used to expand access to healthcare, mental healthcare, affordable housing, and other critical programs to help vulnerable Georgians.  Presbyterians for a Better Georgia (PBG) needs the voices of people of faith like you that:

  • Oppose cuts to the state low-income housing tax credit that supports construction and preservation of affordable housing;

  • Support passage of the Safe at Home Act (HB 404) that provides essential protections for renters facing sudden eviction; and

  • Advocate for increased funding for housing and mental health supports for unsheltered Georgians.

Please join us for on-line training, then come to Central Presbyterian Church (CPC) to walk across the street to the State Capitol and engage the people who represent you:

  • PBG Advocacy Training (Zoom) 7pm February 6, 2024

  • PBG Lobby Day - Central Presbyterian Church March 5, 2024

  • Georgia ACT Housing Day - CPC March 13, 2024
