Partners for Home

About Partners for Home

Partners for Home Inc centers its funding on Atlanta’s homeless response system, using grants to coordinate crisis navigation, housing placement, and supportive services across the city. The largest recent award in the record went to Gateway Center for crisis navigation and hotel operations, reflecting a funder that supports both emergency response and the infrastructure needed to move people toward housing. Other large grants show the same pattern: Project Community Connection received support for rental assistance intermediary work, and Open Doors Solutions Inc. received funding for unit acquisition. The foundation’s recent grants also point to a system-builder role rather than a single-service model. It backs organizations that handle coordinated entry, case management, diversion, outreach, rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing, and housing navigation. Recipients include Mercy Care, Intown Collaborative Ministries, Hope Atlanta, and Zaban Paradies Center, each funded for a different part of the local homelessness response. In domestic violence-related housing work, the foundation has also supported Partnership Against Domestic Violence. Across the record, the grantmaking is tightly tied to the Atlanta Continuum of Care and local homeless services delivery.
