Rotational Shelter

Family Promise's community-based response to helping homeless families breakdown barriers to employment, childcare and housing.

Rotational Shelter Program: 

Family Promise of North Fulton/DeKalb partners with local congregations to provide safe, temporary shelter for families experiencing homelessness. While in the program, families receive a place to stay, meals, and personalized support as they work toward stable housing. **Must have at least one child under the age of 18**

How It Works: ​​​​​

  • ​Families stay overnight at one of our partner congregations, where they are provided a safe place to sleep and meals prepared by volunteers.

​

🔄 Rotate Every 7 Days

​

🤝 Meet Regularly with a Case Manager

  • Each family works closely with a case manager to develop a plan to achieve housing stability and reach their goals.

​

📋 Receive Wraparound Support

  • Families receive personalized wraparound support designed to help them achieve long-term stability, including case management, financial education, credit support, access to basic needs, connections to community resources, and more.

🔑 Work Toward Permanent Housing

  • The goal of the program is to help families move from homelessness to long-term housing stability as quickly as possible.
