Today on 9-8-8 Day, I want all Georgians to know of the free resources that can help you in tough times. Please call or text 988 if you are in need of a listening ear.

As we work to raise awareness about the risks and signs of human trafficking, it's critical that Georgians know how to report suspicious activity.
By downloading the See Something, Send Something app and reporting concerning behavior, you can help end human trafficking in our communities.

As we welcome soccer fans to Georgia this summer, we are uniting to share a loud and clear message: anyone seeking to exploit others is not welcome!
Women, girls, people with autism and those with disabilities are far more likely to be victims of human trafficking, so if you see something, say something.

As Mental Health Awareness Month draws to a close, please remember the 988 hotline is ALWAYS available for anyone experiencing an emergency or needing a listening ear. Talk to your loved ones, support each other during difficult times, and know that it's ok to not be ok.

Human trafficking hides in plain sight, and as we approach @FWC26Atlanta, it’s more important than ever to learn the signs and know how to report suspicious actors.
I’m grateful for the work @its_apenalty & our other partners are doing to spread awareness and prevent human trafficking in Atlanta.

While visiting with the first responders working to protect Georgians and their homes in the face of wildfires, I met Shanya Kadian of @GaTrees. She and US Marshal Jason Parrell bravely rescued 21 animals and assisted two others who were trapped while the fire fast approached the structure these dogs, cats, and Guinea pig were locked in. These animals are all safely housed now thanks to Recovery Farms for Vets in Folkston, which you can reach out to to support these animals and those assisting them. I’m so thankful for the courage and quick action of these heroes that saved these animals’ lives, and for all they and our firefighters are doing to protect both people, property, and pets during this time!

As Brian and I spent the day with those on the front lines of this fire fight, we were reminded that tough times don’t last. Tough people do. And Georgia is full of tough people.
We’ll continue to throw everything we can at these fires, and I ask everyone to join us in praying for all those impacted.

I am so grateful that Georgia has so many leaders who are committed to fighting human trafficking.
At today’s GRACE Commission meeting, we heard from a number of our partners about the preparations being made ahead of this summer’s FIFA World Cup. As we get ready for this historic event, we are making it clear that trafficking has no place in this state!

On this Human Trafficking Awareness Day, we must continue to address the harsh realities of human trafficking in our own communities and learn how to be a part of prevention.
As we recognize Human Trafficking Awareness Month throughout January, I am especially grateful for all those who have continued to support this fight.

If you are struggling with mental health challenges, or someone you know, please call the 9-8-8 Hotline. It's ok to not be ok, and one conversation can make all the difference in saving a life.

What an incredible story! These types of anti-choking devices are saving lives, and I’d encourage everyone to consider learning more about having such a tool for their own family.
Corporal Tamara Severtson deployed her LifeVac, a tool designed to clear airways during choking, to save the man's life. 11alive.com/article/news/loc…
