About the North Fulton Poverty Task Force

In 2014, this group of nonprofit providers and community leaders joined forces to focus on raising awareness of the needs of those living and working in North Fulton who suffer from poverty and who are financially vulnerable. Working together to share knowledge and experience, NFPTF advocates for and support plans and policies that will help the poor and the vulnerable to gain more opportunity.
