Family Promise

In order to offer ongoing support to families who graduated from Family Promise, we started a family mentoring program to help families as they continued to stabilize.

In 2013, Brent Bohanan resigned as Network Director to lead the Gwinnett County Habitat for Humanity program. In July of that year, Chuck Ferraro, a former board member and volunteer, was hired as the new Director. Chuck served until February 2017.

Matt Elder became Executive Director on March 1, 2017, bringing experience from Gwinnett County’s community development, affordable housing, and homeless programs. He resigned in June 2018 to join the United Way of Greater Atlanta, focusing on homelessness and affordable housing. Unfortunately, due to budget constraints Family Promise of Gwinnett suspended operations of SaltLight Center in September of 2018.

In August 2019, Carol Love became Executive Director. She was the founding Director of Family Promise of Gwinnett’s SaltLight Center and worked at Wilbanks Partners in marketing and client relationship management. Carol began her career at Ernst & Young and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting from the University of Georgia’s Terry College of Business.
