GEORGIA QUALITY GROWTH PARTNERSHIP
The Georgia Quality Growth Partnership (GQGP) was formed out of the desire for several organizations to coordinate their efforts at promoting "quality growth" approaches throughout the State of Georgia. The primary purpose of the GQGP is to facilitate local government implementation of quality growth approaches. Founded in March, 2000, the GQGP has grown to more than thirty organizations, each contributing time, in kind services, or financial resources to fostering partnership efforts. For more information, visit their Web site at: http://www.atlantaregional.com/qualitygrowth/.
