Circles Cobb Inc

We recognize that long-term success requires collaboration, which is why we work closely with other organizations to create holistic solutions that help low-income families navigate their way out of poverty. Through a partnership with united way of greater atlanta, we offer a matched savings program enabling participants to earn up to $600 in matched funds to support their financial goals. Through a partnership with southstate bank, we offer emergency loan assistance (with a 3% interest rate) to participants navigating rough patches on their road to financial stability. Once repaid, these six-month loans can help increase credit scores. Additionally, through a cumberland counseling partnership, we are able to offer participants and their children mental health counseling at deeply discounted rates. Often, mental health struggles keep families from moving to a place of thriving, and we are working to remove as many barriers as possible.

In addition to direct support, circles cobb is committed to driving systemic change. Through our big view initiative, participants identify barriers to economic mobility such as lack of affordable childcare or mental health access and work with local leaders to advocate for solutions. By centering lived experience and fostering both individual and community transformation, circles cobb is helping to build a more equitable, thriving cobb county.
