The Hub Family Resource Center, a new nonprofit formed in response to “growing mental wellness and drug addiction concerns” in the North Fulton community, will open their doors on Wednesday, Sept. 16 in Johns Creek.

The Hub’s Board of Directors will host a grand opening at 5:30 p.m. at 11075 State Bridge Road. A keynote address will be delivered by Fulton County Commission Chairman John Eaves.

The Hub Family Resource Center was founded with one mission: to provide a one-stop gateway to a range of resources for a variety of agencies working with the public, such as police departments, schools, courts and probation services, fire departments and hospital emergency rooms.

The Hub will provide a place where residents can come and meet with a resource specialist who can assess their needs and refer them to appropriate and trusted service providers in the community.

The Hub will also eventually incorporate parenting classes and support groups into their services.

“People often tell us they have been told to get help, but don’t know what kind of help they need, where to get it, or who they can trust,” said Executive Director Remco Brommet. “We will serve as a hub and connecting point to mental wellness service providers and resources. We look forward to serving the North Fulton community.”
