Community Partnerships: Changing Lives & Changing Conditions
The Junior League of Cobb-Marietta plays a major and highly visible role in the community. Partnering with
community organizations that reflect our mission of service to the children and families of Cobb County, the
Junior League continues to be instrumental in identifying and meeting community needs through volunteer
assistance and financial contributions. Current partnerships include:

The Junior League is proud of its twenty-year partnership with The Center which houses temporary
emergency shelters for abused and neglected children and youth. Volunteers provide unique
programming concentrating on career and life skills. This year, Junior League volunteers will teach
culinary arts training, useful as both life- and career skills.

reading skills. This program provides one-on-one tutoring with book distribution and reading workshops.

The Center for Family Resources
The Center for Family Resources provides comprehensive services and opportunities for individuals,
families and communities to improve their lives and increase their economic capacity by offering education
and employment services, housing services, direct financial services and community building programs.
