Doug MacGinnitie, commissioner at the Georgia Department of Revenue, works to collect state revenue in Georgia and maintains the state’s motor vehicle records. Since beginning his role, Doug MacGinnitie has helped increase the agency’s efficiency and contributed private business ideas to help better manage the government sector. Additionally, he currently serves as a board member and treasurer of Georgia’s Truancy Intervention Project.
The Truancy Intervention Project has worked to provide early programs and systems to keep kids in school since 1991. In order to achieve its goal, the Project has built relationships with organizations and systems such as the Atlanta City Public School System, the Georgia Bar Foundation, and the Fulton County Juvenile Court, among others. In addition to its many collaborations, the Truancy Intervention Project thrives on community and volunteer help to keep its outreach programs running.
Since the beginning of 1992, the Truancy Intervention Project has had close to 6,000 kids, age 11 years or younger, go through the program. The Project takes on children who frequently miss school and are struggling in their classes, and uses trained volunteers to help correct issues of attendance and keep kids in school. With over 300 attorney and non-attorney volunteers, the Truancy Intervention Project is able to provide the children in its program with at least 20 hours of personalized help from a single volunteer. Additionally, the volunteers help serve as role models to help children build trusting relationships that they may not have otherwise.
