About us
The mission of Our House is to end the cycle of homelessness for families. Our House was established in 1988 by concerned community residents who realized that shelter rules required homeless families to leave early each morning and not return until late in the afternoon. This left families with no where to go during the day, and women with no one to care for their children while they attempted to find work or hold down a job. Since its founding, Our House has strategically addressed homelessness in families using a two-pronged approach: first address affordable, quality childcare as a barrier to self sufficiency and second, provide holistic support to families as they move toward independence.

In the spirit of celebrating mothers this May, you can empower mothers and their children to break the cycle of homelessness by making a gift today or please consider making a monthly, recurring gift. While the issue of family homelessness is often overlooked, data reveals that family homelessness has increased in Atlanta by 75% from 2022 to 2023. A gift of any amount makes a tangible difference, ensuring that families experiencing homelessness have access to the responsive, wraparound support they need on their journey to self-sufficiency. Your support provides mothers and children experiencing homelessness free access to shelter, healthcare, early childhood education, employment training, and comprehensive case management.
