The About Us page is intended to explain why your agency exists. All agencies exist to provide a service to Georgia citizens or some constituent subset of that population. The About Us page is required to include:
- a primary location
- a primary contact (for Schema.org and search engine optimization).
- Including a list of the services that your agency provides is recommended.
This page is designed to be consistent across all agencies so users can find similar information on every site. Only administrators can set an Organization as the agency's Primary Organization. If you would like to change this association, please open a Support Request.
The body section can contain more robust explanations of services provided as preferred by each agency.
