Goal:  Support Godly Government and Influence Government Decisions

  In 2010 Chief Lou Dekmar said he wanted to work with the faith community.  Troup Transformation hosted a meeting for the faith community to meet with Chief Dekmar.  At that time he identified 4 issues he wanted the faith community to work on - homelessness, mental health, youth intervention and re-entry.  We are working on all 4 of these issues.   As a result of this partnership, the Troup County Homeless Coalition was formed; the Troup County Mental Health Court was established and the first court session was held in February, 2013; outreach efforts were made to teens who violated curfew; and CrossOver Ministries met with leaders in the community to develop a ministry for those coming out of jail/prison.

 L to R:  Chief Lou Dekmar; Diane Colson, Host of You Make the Difference in 2010; Wanda Walker, Founder of Troup Transformation, Inc.; Michelle and Mark Davenport, pastors of City Light Church.  Diane interviewed Chief Dekmar at the meeting with the Christian community.  Michelle and Mark hosted the meeting.
