En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes the Good Neighbor Homeless Shelter, founded in Cartersville, Georgia during an ice storm on February 2, 1996, as it approaches its 30th anniversary in 2026. The resolution describes the shelter's growth from a borrowed house to a 24-hour facility that can house 30 guests, and notes it now runs two emergency shelters plus more than 10 units of transitional housing for families and children. The House formally congratulates and commends the organization and directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for the shelter.
