The municipality of College Park is considered part of the Local jurisdiction. However, it is important to note that a portion of that municipality falls in Clayton County. Clayton is not part of the funding jurisdiction. The National EFSP office recognizes that it may be difficult to determine whether a College Park address falls in Fulton or Clayton counties. Therefore, please do your best to be aware of this issue, and make all possible efforts to ensure that clients in this situation reside in Fulton County.
