The River: Transforming Homelessness in Atlanta

The River: Transforming Homelessness in Atlanta Transforming the way we respond to and view homelessness through innovative partnerships, trusting relationships, and educating our neighbors.

The River was founded in 2015 as a new approach to addressing homelessness in Atlanta. We care deeply about our neighbors who are experiencing homelessness, and we are dedicated to building our own awareness of what it is like for someone to live and survive on the streets of Atlanta, and sharing that information and knowledge with others. Building trusting relationships with our homeless friends

is our first goal, as it helps us meet their immediate needs more effectively, and defines our work with organizational partners who can help them make more sustainable change. Our second goal is to take “upstream” actions to prevent homelessness, in the form of political advocacy, policy change, and most importantly, raising awareness. We end the cycle of homelessness by partnering with innovative organizations that are doing good work in the areas of:

Permanent Supportive Housing
Employment
Transportation
Medical, Mental Health, and Addiction Treatment and Care
Equality in Criminal Justice System
