The Drake House is a crisis residential assessment center for homeless women and children in the North Fulton area, offering immediate housing and programs designed to provide stability for the children and assist the family in working toward housing self-sufficiency.
We asked some of our graduate moms what they gained during their stay at The Drake House:
"My greatest accomplishment is that for the first time in my life I have a savings account. Also knowing that I am on track to gain complete control over my finances."
"My greatest gain from staying at The Drake House was understanding how we can easily bounce back if we work as community in times of trials."
"(From the relationship with my mentors) I gained hope, empowerment, and learned from different influential people."
"It was helpful for me to learn that each dollar has a name, including the name 'savings'."
