Families First is Georgia’s largest non-profit family
service agency.

We began our journey in Atlanta in 1890 as the Leonard Street Orphanage for homeless girls. Now 117 years later, our agency responds to pressing community needs such as homelessness; abandoned, abused and neglected children; teen pregnancy; domestic violence; and broken families.

The agency creates cost-effective solutions that positively impact the well-being of children and their families. Our approach to ensuring the success of children in jeopardy by empowering families is what makes Families First truly unique.
