|
The Educational Programming, Assessment and Consultation (EPAC) services program is located within the Georgia Division of Family and Children Services’ (DFCS) Well-Being Services Section—Community Programs Unit. EPAC’s primary mission is to improve the reading and math abilities of school-aged children ages five to 18 while also improving educational stability for all children and youth in the custody of DFCS. In an effort to support the Division’s broader goal of being a resource to families by promoting self-sufficiency and independence, EPAC provides academic support programming that focuses on improving the academic outcomes and achievements of children and youth who are currently in DFCS custody.
EPAC works collaboratively with other state agencies to ensure that the educational well-being of children and youth in foster care is met. EPAC provides diagnostic educational assessments, tutorial services, connection to community-based educational support, and coordinates the procurement of educational services.
