OUR PILLARS
Invest in South DeKalb is guided by five core pillars: economic development, education, health and wellness, advocacy, and environmental justice. Together, these pillars shape our work to build a thriving, self determined South DeKalb. We champion community owned economic growth, push for strong and equitable schools, promote the health and wellbeing of our residents, advocate boldly against disinvestment and neglect, and protect the environment our neighborhoods depend on. Every story we tell and every action we take flows from these commitments, because South DeKalb deserves nothing less.
