Mission & Broad Goals

The Cobb Collaborative seeks to make Cobb County a trauma-informed community through the following:

​

• Increasing the awareness, shared language, and understanding of trauma, ACEs, and the role of safe, stable, and nurturing environments

• Improving the capacity of providers, families, and community members by equipping them with the training necessary to improve outcomes for the children they serve

• Empowering advocates to address long-standing issues of healthcare equity, systemic racism, and social justice

• Advocating for agencies to embed practices and protocols into the implementation of their work and strategies

​

A key example of this work is the Cobb Collaborative’s Mind your Mind mental health awareness campaign and toolkit, which has brought trauma credentialed training programs, film screenings, panel discussions, and educational resources to the region.
