A Home For Everyone In DeKalb

What A Home For Everyone In DeKalb does

A Home For Everyone In DeKalb (AHFEID) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded in August 2017 in Decatur, Georgia, that serves unhoused individuals and those at risk of housing instability in DeKalb County. The organization delivers a coordinated suite of housing assistance and supportive services including Rapid Rehousing (deposit and start-up cost assistance for clients with steady income), Transitional Housing at Snapfinger House (a group home for three single men paying 35% of income, with case management), Severe Weather Assistance (sleeping bags, snack bags, MARTA cards), annual Cold Weather Shelter Coordination at partner churches, Budgeting Classes, a Community Resources Directory, and — launched in 2025 — a Women's Workforce Development Program in partnership with Georgia Works and the Oakhurst Center For Community.

AHFEID operates with a lean staff of 1-10 (Executive Director Greg White plus case manager Jennifer Yearwood and a volunteer board led by Board President Phil Cuffey) and is governed by an active board with committees covering Really Affordable Housing, Severe Weather Resource, Resource Development, and Marketing & Communications. The organization does not sell products or technology; instead, it is a service-delivery entity that relies on donated volunteer labor (51+ active volunteers), in-kind facility use at partner churches, and a deep referral network anchored by DeKalb County's Coordinated Entry system.

The revenue model is entirely non-commercial: AHFEID is funded through tax-deductible donations (via PayPal or check), grants, and fundraising campaigns. The single largest disclosed funding event was a $230,000 raise in December 2022 with United Way to acquire Snapfinger House. Customer segments are exclusively individual unhoused or housing-insecure residents of DeKalb County — there are no enterprise or institutional clients. Service reach is geographically constrained to DeKalb County, Georgia, with capacity at present limited to three transitional housing beds and periodic cold weather shelter nights.

Direct peers

• Open Doors: Atlanta-area nonprofit that connects unhoused and at-risk clients with real estate operators to help them maintain housing, and AHFEID's own case manager (Jennifer Yearwood) also serves as housing support coordinator for Open Doors. Operates in the same DeKalb/metro Atlanta homeless services space with overlapping veteran-focused clientele.
• Hope Atlanta: United Way-affiliated nonprofit providing homelessness prevention, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and supportive services across metro Atlanta — overlapping directly with AHFEID's rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and coordinated entry integration model in the same DeKalb/Atlanta geography.
• Nicholas House: Atlanta-based nonprofit providing transitional and supportive housing for families experiencing homelessness, with case management and workforce development components that mirror AHFEID's integrated rapid rehousing-plus-workforce model.
• Caring Works: Atlanta nonprofit offering supportive housing and case management for adults experiencing chronic homelessness, mental illness, and substance use disorders — directly comparable population, geography, and case-management-based service model to AHFEID.
• Threshold Ministry: Decatur-based ministry that assists with housing applications and cold weather supplies distribution, and is a formal AHFEID partner — operating in the same DeKalb County geography with overlapping unhoused clientele and direct cross-referrals.

Broad incumbents

• Atlanta Mission: Largest provider of homeless services in metro Atlanta, operating multiple shelter, recovery, and rehousing programs across the region — serving the same unhoused population as AHFEID but at materially larger scale with broader program breadth, including the same single men and women AHFEID targets.
• Catholic Charities Atlanta: Regional faith-based social services umbrella that partners with or operates alongside DeKalb-area housing ministries (AHFEID partners with Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church) and provides refugee, housing, and emergency assistance across metro Atlanta.

Regional players

• CHRIS 180: Atlanta-area nonprofit serving youth, adults, and families facing homelessness, housing instability, and behavioral health challenges — overlapping client segments (reentering adults, vulnerable women) and operating in the broader metro region with housing plus workforce programming.

Emerging players

• Georgia Works: Workforce development partner organization that co-launched AHFEID's Women's Workforce Development Program in 2025 — providing the employment-readiness component that complements AHFEID's housing services for chronically homeless and reentering women in DeKalb County.

Others

• Partners for HOME: Atlanta's Continuum of Care lead agency that operates the coordinated entry system and funds homelessness programs across Fulton and DeKalb counties — AHFEID depends on the DeKalb County coordinated entry pipeline Partners for HOME helps administer, making it a critical ecosystem counterpart rather than direct competitor.
