On the state level, Felicia is an active member of the Georgia Municipal Association serving on its Board of Directors, as President of Central Region/District 3, the Legislative Policy Council and the Revenue and Finance Policy Committee. 
One of her legislative highlights was inspired by the case of Mrs. Mattie Moore (no relation), an Alzheimer patient who wandered away from her District 9 home in April 2004, and whose remains were discovered six months later within 500 feet of her home. In response, Felicia authored legislation to establish the “Mattie’s Call” alert system that became an Atlanta Police Standard Operating Procedure for swift, efficient public alerts to assist in finding missing mentally impaired persons. Additionally, she brought “Project Lifesaver” to Atlanta, which provides a monitoring bracelet for patients that can be tracked by police with a transmitter to quickly finds wandering patients. 
Felicia started her community service in 1991 when she purchased a home in the Riverside neighborhood. She served as President of the neighborhood association for several years, spearheading youth programs, crime-watch and beautification efforts. In 1995, she was elected Chair of Neighborhood Planning Unit-D becoming a community advocate for environmental, housing and economic development issues. 
She is a cum laude graduate of Central State University in Wilberforce, Ohio with a B.A. in communications, and is currently an Associate Broker with Keller Williams Realty and a member of the Atlanta and National Boards of Realtors. 
Moore has received numerous honors and awards including being listed in the 2005 edition of “Who’s Who in Black Atlanta,” “Outstanding Young Women in America” and “The Women Looking Ahead 100 List.” She has also been recognized by the Atlanta Business League as one of “Atlanta’s Top 100 Women of Influence.”
