Mission Statement

"HomeStretch guides working homeless families with minor children in north metro Atlanta toward increased self-reliance and stability by providing life skills education, mentoring and supportive housing."

Description

HomeStretch is a nonprofit, 501c(3) agency that offers assistance for homeless families with children in the North Fulton community. We provide safe, stable housing (in duplexes and townhomes), as well as life skills classes and mentoring for families who have nowhere else to turn. Participants are expected to pay off debt, especially housing-related debt, and set up a savings plan.

HomeStretch matches a social worker and a team of volunteers with each family to support them in reaching their goals and attaining stability and permanent housing. HomeStretch was awarded the HUD best practices award for creating a program that truly makes a difference: temporary housing - permanent solutions.
