LIFT 2.0, a homeless response initiative aimed at housing 1,500 households by December 31, 2024, was launched in
the summer of 2022 in the City of Atlanta. Thanks to investments from private entities, as well as City and State
departments, the initiative is currently in progress. So far, over 820 households have been rehoused – over halfway
towards the plan’s goal.
Partners for Home, a nonprofit, is spearheading the execution of this initiative. In the process, Partners for Home
has emphasized the challenge in finding and securing suitable accommodations, despite the organization’s
commitment to paying rent for all units. The initiative’s success walks hand-in-hand with the availability of
affordable housing units.
Community stakeholders are encouraged to attend monthly meetings held on the first Wednesday of each
month from 9:30 to 10 a.m.
