History

In 1986 the National Youth Committee of the United States established eleven Regional Youth Committees to coordinate youth activities at a more local level and one of the new Committees was based in Alpharetta. In October 1989 an Atlanta Bahá’í youth group was invited to perform a program titled Barriers to Peace at the Milton High School in Alpharetta which received positive feedback and resulted in several repeat performances at the school. Several students attended a fireside in Alpharetta afterwards.

Alpharetta had established a Local Spiritual Assembly some time prior to 1990 however that year it was not able to submit its election results to the National Spiritual Assembly, and in 1991 it was announced that three homefront pioneers were needed to keep the Assembly intact.
