Doug MacGinnitie, the commissioner of the Georgia Department of Revenue, has dedicated much of his career to public service. A graduate of the Emory University School of Law, where he was a Woodruff Fellow and earned membership in the Order of the Coif, Doug MacGinnitie currently serves as treasurer for the Truancy Intervention Project in Atlanta, Georgia.
Founded by the former president of the Atlanta Bar Association and a Chief Judge of the Fulton County Juvenile Court, the Truancy Intervention Project (TIP) focuses on improving the lives of young people identified as truants by providing outreach and interventions designed to keep them in school. The project’s partners include the Georgia Bar Foundation, the Atlanta Bar Association, and the Woodward Foundation.
TIP provides a number of volunteer opportunities in support of its mission. Attorney volunteers for TIP take on the responsibility of advocating for children during truancy proceedings, helping families identify and utilize community resources, and speaking on the children’s behalf at school meetings regarding truancy. Every year, TIP hosts a Volunteer Appreciation Day to recognize their contributions.
