About
At Atlanta Children’s Day Shelter, we are dedicated to supporting families facing homelessness. Since 1986, we have served over 5,000 families and cared for nearly 8,000 children. Our logo, featuring two interlocking gears, symbolizes our belief that generations are interconnected.
Meals and Snacks Provided & Served in the Early Childhood Education Program in 2023
Of Parents received 1 Counseling Session & Children received a Behavioral and Health Screening
We believe in holistic support. We understand each member of the family as a gear that cannot turn without moving the other. By providing comprehensive services to parents and high-quality early childhood education to children, we ensure that both generations can thrive together.
Guided by our core values of Accountability, Communication & Leadership, Inclusion & Equity, Collaboration & Teamwork, Integrity & Trust, Caring & Compassion, Atlanta Children’s Day Shelter, we strive to help create an Atlanta where homelessness is defeated and every child has a safe and nurturing home.
Over the past 40 years, Atlanta Children’s Day Shelter has centered families facing homelessness. Each day, our staff works alongside our families, helping them to reach self-sufficiency, to build the life they desire.
