Background Information:GCO works to ensure that the success sequence – of a quality education, stable employment, and a healthy family life – is available to all Georgians. Our work is largely based on a hopeful optimism about the American way of life, a theme Brooks returns to again and again. That’s why we are excited to partner with AEI for the Atlanta premier of this movie.
After the movie, we’ll take a deeper dive into how the values and structures of our society offer the best set of solutions to the problem of poverty if only they can be mobilized to address the need.
The Georgia Center for Opportunity (GCO) is independent, non-partisan, and solutions-focused. Our team is dedicated to creating opportunities for a quality education, fulfilling work, and a healthy family life for all Georgians. To achieve our mission, we research ways to help remove barriers to opportunity in each of these pathways, promote our solutions to policymakers and the public, and help effective and innovative social enterprises deliver results in their communities. Our ultimate goal is to see every Georgian who is willing to seize the opportunities presented to them living a life that can be characterized as truly flourishing.
