HOPE Atlanta

Description

HOPE Atlanta (aka Travelers Aid of Atlanta) offers an array of services designed to achieve the agency's goals, including shelter and other emergency services, transitional and permanent supportive housing, case management, street outreach, homeless prevention, domestic violence services, HIV/AIDS services, reunification, and rapid re-housing. In calendar year 2015 the agency served 6,365 unduplicated individuals through our various programs, and at least twice as many were provided information and referrals.

The majority of the people we assist are homeless or about to become homeless and have very low income. Many are chronically homeless, veterans, victims of domestic violence, suffering from mental or physical illness, or chemically addicted. They are usually initially in crisis and in need of immediate crisis intervention services. The crises may be due to homelessness, the threat of homelessness, unemployment, abandonment, poverty, illness, hunger, domestic violence, poor planning, financial emergencies, and/or unforeseen circumstances.
