The housing story
A place to begin again
Stories of service, stability, and the power of a place to call home.
"My family sought out to expand our business by relocating to Atlanta Ga in hopes of networking with other business. With in the first month of our arrival our hosing situation unexpectedly changed. With no prior Local history of residency, the only option was to temporary stay in a shelter while looking for a new home. While being a parent, full time online student, working 2 jobs and trying to keep our WFH family business running we humbled ourselves and realized we could use a helping hand. I then search online for a non-profit organization that helps assistance people at risk of homelessness.
We found AMERICAS SEMPER FORTIS . Mrs. Amber Mierez was able to house us and to remind me don't lose hope, a helping hand is just a phone call away.
Out of genuine courtesy on our first night, Mrs. Amber welcomed us into our 3 bedroom apartment by providing dinner the first night and beds for each room. We got settled in and the following Monday
I registered my son & daughter with the CCPS and was able to set my business back up. Stability is a key to success and AMERICAS SEMPER FORTIS has given that to my family.
We are truly grateful and I highly recommend the service." -Mike, Crystal P & Family

"I want to share this as a sign of hope for anyone feeling out of options. Just a short time ago, I had two weeks left at a temporary shelter and had completely given up. I was entirely alone in Georgia, with nowhere safe to turn.When I filled out the form for Americas Semper Safe Haven (ASSH), everything changed. Thanks to ASFVHand ASSH, my service dog and I now have a safe, clean home and a real family like support and community who cares. As the very first official ASSH member, please trust them with your new beginning—they truly care!- Anonymous (for safety reasons)
