SAVANNAH Family Promise’s three area affiliates in Savannah, Bryan and Effingham counties have undergone some significant structural changes.

Before making the decision in 2019 to go ahead with the merger, the three boards discussed the potential benefits for months. They arrived at the conclusion they could better serve homeless and at-risk families throughout the region by joining forces and even making future plans to continue the expansion, eventually moving into Liberty County.
