Details of Services Currently Provided

*Emergency Relief 
For the last 5 years we have been doing emergency relief in the Grove Park (Bankhead) community. We issue restoration grants up to $1000 to assist with rent, utilities, temporary housing needs, medical emergency needs as well as food and supplies. We have an emergency relief line (770-800-7317) that community members can call and our faithful restoration agents assist them quickly and discretely to get the help they need in a dignified way. The need for these service has multiplied beyond what we can handle with this Pandemic and the amount of joblessness and loss income many are facing. We primarily need resources to meet these needs and volunteers as well. Visit Emergency.restorelife.net to plug in to help. 
 
*Food Empowerment
