#COBBCOUNTY TENANTS: Facing #eviction? Know your rights. Know your options. Facing the possibility of losing your home can be overwhelming. But knowing where to turn for help and taking action as EARLY as possible can make a meaningful difference. Our friends at @AtlantaLegalAid Society provide FREE legal advice to qualifying low-income tenants, including Cobb County residents facing eviction. ⚠️ One especially important thing to know: If you've been served with an eviction notice (also called a *dispossessory*) and want to dispute it, you generally have just 7 days to file an answer with the court. Don't ignore those papers or miss your deadline! Atlanta Legal Aid also offers in-person legal consultations at the Cobb County courthouse, along with helpful information about preparing for court and understanding your options. 📲 Swipe through for important info about deadlines, legal assistance, courthouse clinic locations and how to apply. 📞URGENT? Call Atlanta Legal Aid: (404) 524-5811 | Mon–Thu, 9–11a atlantalegalaid.org/apply At Family Promise of Cobb County, we believe that every family deserves the opportunity for a safe, stable home. Part of that commitment is making sure our neighbors know about the resources available when housing stability is at risk. 💜 Please save this post and share it.

🎉 PAUSE RIGHT NOW! For the first time in our history, Family Promise of Cobb County has helped 100 families in a single year! Just a few years ago, we were only able to serve 22 families - and that was a lot to us back then. Today, we've reached 100. That's more than 4x more families receiving the support, resources and hope they need to move toward stability. And we didn't get here alone! To our incredible partners, volunteers, donors, congregations and community supporters, please know this: YOU made this possible. Every hour volunteered, every dollar donated, every partnership formed and every act of kindness has helped us reach more families right here in Cobb County. But even as we celebrate this milestone, we recognize the growing need. Our call volume has increased by more than 35% this year alone. Behind those calls are real families facing real challenges, looking for a way forward. So while 100 families is a milestone worth celebrating, it's certainly not where our work ends. We will keep showing up. Keep building partnerships. Keep finding solutions. And keep helping as many families as we can, in every way we can. Because every family deserves the opportunity for a safe, stable home. And that's a promise. 💜 #FamilyPromiseCobb #100Families #CommunityImpact #CobbCounty #HousingStability #StrongerTogether #FamilyPromise

🎃 Ghosts. Goblins. Monsters under the bed. Halloween is full of things that go bump in the night. But for Cobb County families facing #eviction or homelessness, the scariest thing isn't imaginary. It's not knowing where your kids will sleep tomorrow. At Family Promise of Cobb County, we help families facing housing crises find safety, stability and a path forward through homelessness prevention, shelter and individualized support that actually helps. Every child deserves a safe place to call home, long after the Halloween decorations come down. This Halloween, help us take the fear out of an uncertain tomorrow. bit.ly/fpcobbdonate #FamilyPromiseCobb #CobbCounty #HalloweenForGood #FamilyHomelessness #HousingStability #EveryChildDeservesAHome

For a Cobb County child experiencing homelessness, bedtime isn't what you'd think. Instead of their familiar bed, their favorite blanket and a bedtime story, they're wondering what parking lot or extended stay they'll be sleeping at tonight. Like you, we believe children deserve the comfort of knowing they're safe, their family is together and tomorrow holds possibility. Our Rotational Shelter Program provides more than a place to stay. It gives families time, support and stability as they work toward a home of their own. Sometimes, the most important thing we can give a child is the chance to simply be a child. Just $331 helps cover one night of shelter for a family. ⭐Help us provide more safe nights and brighter tomorrows: bit.ly/fpcobbdonate #FamilyPromiseCobb #FamilyPromise #CobbCounty #FamilyHomelessness #HousingStability #EveryFamilyDeservesAHome #CommunityImpact

Family homelessness doesn't always look the way we expect. It can look like a family staying with friends or relatives because they have nowhere else to go. Parents working hard to make ends meet while living in a motel. Children going to school each morning without knowing where they'll sleep next week. These are the often-unseen realities of family homelessness, and they're happening right here in Cobb County. At Family Promise of Cobb County, we believe every family deserves the opportunity for safety, stability and a brighter future. Through homelessness prevention, shelter and supportive services, we're helping families navigate housing crises and move toward lasting stability. Because families experiencing homelessness shouldn't have to be visible to be valued. 💛 It's time to make the invisible visible. #FPInvisibleNoMore #FamilyPromiseCobbCounty #FamilyPromise #CobbCounty

The best way to end family homelessness is to prevent it from happening in the first place. For families living paycheck to paycheck, one unexpected expense, job loss or medical emergency can put their housing at risk. And when a family loses its home, the impact can extend far beyond the immediate crisis, especially for children. That's why Family Promise of Cobb County joins Family Promise National in recognizing the reintroduction of the bipartisan Eviction Crisis Act, legislation aimed at helping families avoid #eviction and maintain housing stability. As Carolyn Gordon, Family Promise's Chief Network and Program Officer, reminds us, every eviction prevented is an opportunity to spare children and families the lasting effects of housing instability. Here in Cobb County, we know that preventing homelessness is just as important as helping families recover from it. Through compassionate support, community partnerships and a commitment to lasting stability, we work toward a future where every child has a safe place to call home. 💜 Because keeping families housed changes lives. Learn more about the proposed Eviction Crisis Act and its approach to preventing housing instability: https://lnkd.in/eRUvPKcS

Hope comes when families are supported, communities come together and every child has the opportunity to thrive. At Family Promise of Cobb County, we are committed to helping the families of our community work toward stability, dignity and lasting change - because every family deserves a place to call home and a future filled with possibility. Wishing you a safe and meaningful 4th of July - from the Family Promise team!
