Mission
Greenbriar Children's Center is a private non-profit agency whose mission is to provide services, which promote the healthy development of children and the strengthening of families.

gradWe are accredited by the Council on Accreditation for Children and Family Services and operate seven programs.  Our services include th emergency shelter, residential group home, runaway/homeless programs, independent living, family preservation, early childhood development programs and Project Safe Place.  We are devoted to the care of children and youth who have reached difficult times in their family life and strive to provide them a normal, healthy lifestyle.  However, the primary goal of Greenbriar is to reunite families with their children as quickly as possible.
 
History
•Young black boys who were orphaned in Savannah that had no place to go were sent to “Brown Farm”, a penal farm for convicts; the girls were sent to the Chatham County Protective home. The kids were not being punished, but it was the only safe place for them.
