WHAT:

The Mayor has appointed three Co-Chairs to guide the work of the Taskforce: Bill McGahan, Founder of Georgia Works, Marilynn Winn, Executive Director of Women on the Rise, and Rashad Taylor, Senior Advisor to the Mayor.  The Task Force consists of 25 members who will be joined by two appointees of the City Council, an advisory group membership of nine experts intimately involved with the work, and fourteen ex officio members who bring their trusted insight, expertise, and government service.

The Taskforce and committee members will convene on a consistent basis to determine the future of the jail and reimagine the space.
