Chattooga Family Connection recently marked another holiday success by stuffing and delivering 150 Christmas stockings to local students, ensuring children across the county felt supported during the season.

Chattooga County students will soon have expanded access to school-based mental health care thanks to a $430,000 investment from Atrium Health Floyd, funded by the Atrium Health Floyd-Polk Foundation.

Fire officials urge families across Northwest Georgia to take a few key precautions to reduce the risk of a fast-moving house fire.
