Transitional housing program

The City of Refuge, Inc., doing business as Eden Village, was awarded a $475,000 Project Grant from the Department of Justice Offices Boards and Divisions Office on Violence Against Women. The grant was awarded on October 1, 2021 under the Transitional Housing Assistance for Victims of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Stalking, or Sexual Assault program (CFDA 16.736).

The grant will fund the provision of transitional housing assistance and related support services to minors, adults, and their dependents who are homeless or in need of transitional housing as a result of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or sexual assault. Services will be provided through September 30, 2024 at Eden Village's location in Atlanta, Georgia. The funding and three-year period are consistent with the program's goal of supporting transitional housing programs that provide safe housing and assistance to victims of domestic violence and related crimes.
