Center for Family Resources Housing Assistance

The Center for Family Resources places families in their own apartments, providing safety and security away from a group shelter environment. CFR's housing programs provide affordable, independent living options that include supportive services like childcare assistance, transportation, budgeting workshops and other life-skills classes. CFR is able to provide these housing services to the community with the partnership and participation from various apartment complexes in Cobb County.
Short-Term Housing
CFR's short-term housing program is a temporary "shelter" in a fully-furnished two-bedroom apartment for families that are currently or imminently homeless.
Rapid Re-Housing
Our Rapid Re-Housing program assists currently homeless families in obtaining a permanent place to live by providing financial assistance for deposits, move-in costs and other obstacles toward obtaining an apartment.

Tenant-Based Rental Assistance
The TBRA program assists families who have a temporary inability to maintain housing. In cases of unexpected financial setback, TBRA can provide assistance to help families stay in their current home or obtain a new lease.

In order to be admitted into any of our housing programs, you must:
1. Be a Cobb County resident
2. Have resided in Cobb County for at least the past two months
3. Have at least one minor child (under 18) in your household
