Our Vision
The Vision of the Georgia Commission on Women includes the following:
- Violence Against Women – Georgia will have a social environment in which women and children are safe from
domestic violence, sexual assault, or elder abuse in the home, the workplace, and on the streets.
- Healthcare – Georgia will have a statewide healthcare system which offers equal access to service, information and research
with regard to special healthcare needs of women.
- Education – Georgia will be the “education state” which values education and offers quality and access to vocational and
academic education, regardless of age, gender, or economic ability.
- Childcare – Quality childcare will be accessible and affordable for all Georgians.
- Employment/Labor Force – There will be no limitations on employment opportunities, equal pay for equal work, and no sexual
harassment or violence in the workplace.
- Employment Securities – Women of Georgia, regardless of age or employment status, will enjoy sound economic status to maintain
their human dignity.
- Welfare/Workfare – Georgia's welfare system will provide individuals with skills and training needed to succeed on their own,
and a safety net for those who cannot work.
- Political Participation – Georgia will be a state where local, county, and state government officials are elected, or appointed, based
only upon their qualifications.
