Restoring Hope, One Person At A Time.

My Sister’s Place is a nonprofit homeless shelter located in Northeast Georgia. In 2000, we opened our doors in love – our love and God’s love – to women and children in need.

 

Love thy neighbor

Homelessness can happen to anyone. The majority of our residents are experiencing homelessness due to life events such as changes in relationships, unemployment, or unexpected expenses that upset their delicate budget.
