The FACT program is provided by a partnership between Decatur City Schools, the National Child Advocacy Center, and PACT Family Resource Center. This program seeks to maximize the use of resources throughout our community. We desire to provide all children with a safe and supportive environment, in order to optimize their learning experience. Currently, FACT is offered in three elementary schools: West Decatur Elementary, Somerville Road Elementary, and Austinville Elementary. Each school has a FACT Project office that is open during school hours. FACT coordinates existing high-quality services from the community and brings them into the school to provide a strong circle of support for the children and their families.

Thanks to the vision of the Decatur City Schools' Board of Education, FACT is enabling teachers to concentrate on the job of teaching each child in the classroom. Because PACT believes that every child deserves to be safe, we train professionals in the FACT project to bring a supportive environment to each student. Spanish translation is available to assist families with needs in the areas of communication.
