March 27, 2020

In response to the latest mandates by government and partner agencies, Our House’s early childhood education program will remain closed through April 6, 2020. We understand this is an added burden for the over 100 children and parents served by our ECE program in Atlanta and Decatur, and continue to identify opportunities to ensure the families we serve are not forgotten.

For our families, we are exploring funding and staffing opportunities to provide digital education and support, onsite services including childcare for parents that lack the flexibility to remain home, and food and supplies for the nearly 500 individuals served through our interrelated programs. Our House will continue to partner with volunteers and nonprofits to ensure our donation closet is stocked and supplies such as diapers, formula, household and personal items are available as needed. We expect to have more clarity about how to move forward on April 13, 2020.

As members of the Greater Atlanta community, we are united in overcoming this pandemic while meeting the immediate needs of families experiencing homelessness. Together, we will emerge stronger.
