ABOUT US

CDF Action is a 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2010.

We began working in the highly diverse, refugee-resettlement community of Clarkston, GA. This is where we piloted both our asset-based community development approach and our early care and learning activities. We have since expanded to Stone Mountain and Norcross, both highly diverse communities in the greater metro-Atlanta area.

Our focus today goes beyond immigrant and refugee children and families to include all children and their families in a super-diverse community. While some of our activities are targeted to specific populations (for example, our READY Schools engage families who live in the apartment complex in which the school is housed), we also engage in city-wide activities (for example, the Story Walk and the Clarkston Tell Me a Story!) that are open to the entire public.
