Home Grown is a storytelling campaign from Atlanta Housing to highlight how access to safe, affordable housing helps residents build better futures. The campaign will share real resident stories to inspire the public, engage media, and educate policymakers about the importance of protecting and expanding housing resources.
We believe affordable housing is more than a roof over your head — it’s a foundation for opportunity, stability, and self-sufficiency. We’re collecting stories from residents, voucher holders, and community partners to help protect and expand housing resources in Georgia.
If you’ve been impacted by an Atlanta Housing program, we’d love to hear from you. Your story can make a difference in how decision-makers understand the value of affordable housing.
