HomeAid Georgia's mission is to help people experiencing or at risk of homelessness build new lives through construction, community engagement, and education
| |
HomeAid Atlanta is Now HomeAid Georgia | |
|
Same Mission, New Name
On any given night there are an estimated 12,294 people experiencing homelessness in the state of Georgia based on the 2023 Point In Time (PIT) Count, an annual census done every January. Over the last 23 years, HomeAid Atlanta has worked in a nine-county metro Atlanta footprint to build a future without homelessness. While those counties account for 4,770 of the total PIT Count, we were still missing about 60% of the need.
| |
On October 1, HomeAid Atlanta became HomeAid Georgia, expanding its reach to serve even more of our neighbors to ensure that everyone has a safe and dignified place to call home.
Our expansion beyond the metro Atlanta area has already begun. We are working with the Athens Area and Midwest Georgia Home Builders Associations (HBA) on their community engagement efforts. We are also reaching out to the South GA HBA and the Home Builders of Greater Aiken-Augusta Region to help with hurricane relief. Finally, we are planning to break ground in early 2025 at Peace Place, a domestic violence shelter in Jackson County with Paran Homes and Evans General Contractors (photo above).
