The mission of Rainbow Village is to provide families in north metro Atlanta in domestic or economic crisis with a healing environment to rebuild their lives through a community based transitional housing program that promotes self-sufficiency.
HOMELESSNESS. How does it happen?
The physical and emotional damage resulting from homelessness can tear a family apart. In 2006, more than 26,000 families in Gwinnett County were recorded as homeless. Living in overcrowded shelters, with extended families and friends, or in uninhabitable places like their cars, single mothers and their children comprise 58% of homeless families.
The rainbow has always been the symbol of a covenant of promise and hope between God and humankind. Since 1991, Rainbow Village, Inc. has honored that promise, entering into covenants with homeless families, making it possible for them to stay together while developing the skills they need to stand on their own again.
Rainbow Village means security, stability, a place of many resources and opportunities, support and understanding.
The average age of a homeless child at Rainbow Village is 9 years old.
