Representative Erica Thomas

, Erica received the Global Peace Foundation Award for starting “Speak Out Loud,” a non-profit organization that encourages foster children to use their voices in order to dismantle barriers that often quantify their inner-city experiences. Erica, a former foster child herself, is a proud resident of Cobb County and can often be seen along with her 3-year old daughter volunteering in the community. Her views on service: "I was placed into the foster care system at the age of 15. Moving between six different homes, I was abused, but did not allow this dark experience to dampen my ambitions nor quiet the song of service in my heart. I have worked through the pain and decided that I would save myself, by helping to save others."
