Newsletter / resource blurb
GeorgiaDoesntCare.com is an independent, source-first public record for Georgia foster-care funding and oversight. The Joint Study Committee on Evaluating Escalating Costs in Georgia's Foster Care System had a scheduled Sept. 17, 2026 window. The Sept. 14, 2026 Georgia Senate Press Office advisory (https://senatepress.net/joint-study-committee-on-evaluating-escalating-costs-in-georgias-foster-care-system-to-hold-second-meeting.html) listed the meeting at 9:00 a.m. ET in 307 CLOB, said it would be open to the public and livestreamed on the Georgia General Assembly website, and planned presentations from the Office of the Child Advocate, Together Georgia and Justice for Children, followed by DFCS responses to committee questions. The live Georgia General Assembly schedule (https://www.legis.ga.gov/schedule/all) also listed a conflicting 1:00 p.m. ET time for the same meeting/room. An official Georgia House Facebook post dated Sept. 17, 2026 confirms that the meeting occurred that day. The conflicting pre-meeting sources do not establish the actual start time; attendance, testimony, completed presentations, final agenda, outcomes, public-comment activity, recording content, and next-meeting timing remain unverified. For the latest source status, see the committee tracker (https://georgiadoesntcare.com/foster-care-cost-study-committee), evidence ledger (https://georgiadoesntcare.com/evidence-ledger), budget calendar (https://georgiadoesntcare.com/georgia-foster-care-budget-calendar), and updates (https://georgiadoesntcare.com/updates).
