Gwinnett County State of the Children to Be Held This Friday

In Georgia's Gwinnett County, there are 77 communities where resources are in short supply and kids are in danger of not reaching their potential, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

The high-risk communities include Duluth, Snellville, and Suwannee.
