Program areas at 247 Gateway LLC
Gateway Center has been actively involved in the development of the program implementation and staffing of two recent initiatives in Atlanta that used hotels as shelter. Our staff handles recruitment, onboarding, and training of personnel to work in the hotel shelters. Gateway Center provided staffing oversight for the residential advisors, residential advisor leads, and quality assurance officers at the Non-Congregate and Isolation Hotels.
The Evolution Center was launched on December 6, 2017, with funding provided by Partners from Home, to address the needs of Atlanta's chronically homeless in need of a low barrier shelter option. Evolution Center provides emotional and physical support for men who are experiencing homelessness. Gateway Center's Evolution Center is a low barrier shelter program designed to provide rapid access to safe shelter that is voluntary 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The goal of this program is provide shelter beds to those individuals who need it most (not limited to) with priority on those individuals that are most acute and have the highest needs.
Gateway Center provides a central access point to Fulton County's Continuum of Care, which connects men, women, and families with the most appropriate housing resources to assist them in ending their homelessness. Coordinated entry provides individuals experiencing homelessness with housing assessments (VI-SPDAT), emergency shelter placements, housing navigation services, and linkage to long-term housing placement options available through the Housing Queue. The Outreach Team works to build trusting relationships by meeting individuals where they are typically sleeping in unsheltered areas throughout North and South Fulton. The goal of Gateway Center's Outreach Team is to transition individuals they encounter to short-term housing (shelter) or permanent housing options.
