Who We Are
Our mission is to support youth facing homelessness through street outreach, providing resources, services and information. We aim to establish a comprehensive affirming center in Downtown Atlanta for youth experiencing housing insecurity and homelessness.
What We Do
RHY Atlanta maps safe services for homeless youth, partnering with Downtown Atlanta organizations and stakeholders. Weekly street outreach connects with youth on the streets, and free-of-cost trainings are offered to organizations interacting with these clients.
Why We Do It
RHY Atlanta aims to support runaway and homeless youth and the community organizations that support them. We provide trainings addressing community and capacity building to support runaway and homeless youth, trauma-informed care, and other topics as requested.
