Who We Are

Run entirely by volunteers, The Hope and Dignity Community Center serves one of the most economically challenged areas of the city. We opened in June 2019, with the building aptly named to provide hope and dignity to the wonderful people of west Atlanta. With about 1/3 of the community experiencing homelessness, it is all you can imagine a poor and struggling neighborhood to  be—and it is also so much more!

The Hope and Dignity Community Center connects adults to necessary services such as housing assistance, medical and mental health care, substance abuse recovery referrals, birth certificate and ID attainment, employment training, and adult literacy programming. We also provide programming and resources for the many kids of the neighborhood looking for a safe space to learn and play.
