"Because You Deserve A Good Home"

The "shining star" in Advocates' family of services, this is our short term residential and counseling home for troubled youth. While in residence, youth receive individual, group and family counseling. Runaway, abused, abandoned or otherwise in-crisis children live in a safe and loving place.

In addition to basic care, transportation to and from school, love attention and friendship, residents are enriched by:

n Recreation (Including: horseback riding, movies, fishing, paging at Georgia state legislature, sports, gardening, educational field trips)
