The Georgia Food Safety Task Force comprises representatives of various federal, state, and local governmental agencies. The members are from agriculture and health departments as well as state and federal laboratories and other institutions. In addition, member representatives were selected from industry, legislative and consumer organizations to participate. The purpose of the group is to establish better lines of communication between agencies in order to ensure effective and efficient response to food, waterborne hazards and other public health problems.

The group conducts quarterly meetings to discuss current issues that require multi-agency response. Topics include: foodborne illness and outbreaks, data sharing between regulatory agencies, better communication with the public, media and consumers. Team members work cooperatively to promote uniform standards, program assessment and evaluation, laboratory operations coordination, food safety education, training and certification.
