Project Description

Atlanta Chapter Officially Opens
with an Inspiring Homecoming

Atlanta’s first project since becoming an official Dwell with Dignity chapter was for mom, Yvette, and her 8 year old daughter, Denver. Dwell with Dignity first came to know Yvette and Denver at the end of 2016 when they were nominated by our agency partner HomeStretch. After encountering year after year of hardships and struggles, Yvette powered through each and every obstacle with her positive spirit and incredible stamina. With her mind firmly set on a successful future for her daughter, Yvette excelled in the HomeStretch programs designed to increase self reliance and stability. Yvette’s mentors and friends saw her grow as a parent, earn a more stable occupation, increase her income and flourish as a grateful, hardworking and optimistic woman. We were thrilled to be able to gift her and her sweet daughter with the foundation of a beautifully designed home.

THE HOMECOMING

“If you only knew the feeling I have just at the thought of all the amazing people who played a part in making our home happen. My heart is overwhelmed with joy and I can’t tell you enough times how thankful I am.  Please let everyone know how amazing they are and how much I appreciate them.  Oh and Niki and James!!!!  When I say they were so on point with everything, it is just remarkable how good they are at what they do.  You all will forever have a special place in my heart.  Thank you so much for what you have done for Denver and I.”
