We Help Youth Facing Homelessness in Atlanta, Georgia

Covenant House Georgia (CHGA) provides emergency shelter and more for young people facing homelessness and human trafficking. We welcome with unconditional love all youth ages 18-24. Our doors are always open and our services free of charge. We’re here to respond to youths’ immediate needs and provide the support they require to reach their potential and their goal of independence.

Our Shelter

CHGA’s emergency shelter offers youth safety, food, clothing, showers, and a warm, safe bed. We provide medical and mental health care, including individual and group counseling through our on-site team of mental health professionals, to help youth heal the wounds that are part of their story.
