Miss Davis briefed the board that the county applied for an infant‑toddler court grant and had previously been awarded funding routed through Georgia State University; on April 10 staff were notified of a supplemental $18,585 award, bringing the total to $78,585.
She said the supplemental portion will fund a part‑time peer support specialist as part of the Thrive team, providing case management and family support for children ages 0–3 involved with or at risk of entering child welfare. Miss Davis asked whether there were any questions; commissioners did not object in the recorded segments.
