What can you do about your criminal history? Georgia Justice Project
GJP Presents: What Can You Do About Your Criminal History?
Georgia Justice Project is partnering with the Georgia Department of Community Supervision to provide free presentations to individuals with a criminal record as well as service providers in 8 counties across the state. Our first session was held on Thursday, August 30th, and had over 210 people in attendance. The presentations focus on understanding criminal records in Georgia, barriers they may create to employment and housing, as well as what individuals can do to alleviate collateral consequences of their criminal record.
There will be two different presentations at each location:
Note: If you bring a recent copy of your criminal history from the Georgia Crime Information Center (GCIC) to the "What Can You Do About Your Criminal History" presentation, an attorney or paralegal will review it and answer questions about your record after the presentation.

Medicaid Re-enrollment
If your ministry serves Medicaid/PeachCare for Kids, the Dept. of Human Services has a message and materials for you.
-
- Redetermination began in April 2023. Based on changes in federal law, the State of Georgia must complete redeterminations up to May 2024. We want to ensure current Medicaid and PeachCare for Kids® members are still eligible for coverage.
-
- During redetermination, the State of Georgia will collect and verify member information, including contact and income details as well as other requested information and documents that will be used to determine member eligibility. Not everyone will go through this process at the same time. In fact, it will take about 14 months to reach everyone.
-
- Members can visit gateway.ga.gov to view their redetermination date and to update their contact information today so they can stay informed about the status of their coverage.
-
- Members who need help can visit their local Division of Family & Children Services office for support. To find the location and business hours for local offices, visit: dfcs.ga.gov/location
-
- For more information on Medicaid redetermination, we are including a partner toolkit with resources in multiple languages, please visit “Stay Informed. Stay Covered.”
