About Us
The Camilla Foundation was founded by a Licensed Professional Counselor in Statesboro, Georgia, in response to the significant amount of people seeking out mental health services without the resources to pay a full (or sometimes even reduced) rate. Through this experience, she began to explore other ways to help people meet their needs, while also supporting the network of high quality Counselors and other mental health providers around Southeast Georgia and other areas where clients are in need.
