Who We Are

BRANCH was born out of Barrow County’s collective response to the tragic shooting at Apalachee High School- a moment that reminded us how deeply healing is needed when crisis strikes close to home. What started as urgent care for one community has grown into a long-term space of restoration and hope for all.

We are a community-rooted hub created to walk alongside individuals and families facing the aftermath of trauma, crisis, and loss. Whether you're seeking support, guidance, or simply a space to begin again, you belong here.

We believe healing happens in community. At BRANCH, you’ll find compassionate people, trauma-informed care, and resources tailored to help you rebuild your life. This is not just a place for services- it’s a place for growth, restoration, and lasting hope.
