MISSION

The Center for New Beginnings (CFNB) is a Christian non-profit serving children and young adults with special needs in Burke, Jenkins, Screven, Liberty, Glascock, Emanuel, Jefferson, Richmond and Columbia counties of Georgia.

We are a non-denominational Christian organization providing services for all members of our surrounding communities to enhance the lives of children with disabilities regardless of religious affiliations. Our intention is to glorify God and exalt the name of Jesus, being governed by the Holy Spirit in the provision of ministry and resources to those whom Jesus called “the least of these my brothers and sisters” (Matthew 25:40). 

Our mission is to offer healing and hope to families with special needs through the provision of resources, services and support to meet the challenges they are facing.

In Their own words

“Her smile and big hugs always brighten my day. She challenges me to be creative in my teaching, while also being understanding and gentle when bringing her outside the bounds of what she is used to. She demonstrates that there is always hope, the need is great and the reward is priceless.” – Staff Member
