The program will begin with informational meetings: Tuesday, May 8, and Wednesday, May 9. Sessions will take place from 10 a.m. until noon, and from 6 until 8 p.m. on both days at the Family IMPACT Hub, 1701 Mountain Industrial Blvd., Stone Mountain.

Participants must be ages 23 or older and have a state-issued photo ID. Participants must also be a parent or guardian of a current DeKalb County School District student. These are the only requirements for this free opportunity.
