En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It recognizes February 26, 2025 as Pace Day at the Capitol to honor the Pace Center for Girls, a nonprofit founded in Jacksonville, Florida in 1985 that provides free academics, counseling, and life skills programs for girls affected by trauma and at risk of entering the juvenile justice system. The resolution describes the organization's history and its work across 23 communities in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, serving more than 3,000 girls a year. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for the Pace Center for Girls, but it does not create any new program, funding, or legal requirement.
