Diane Hughes, Director of Supportive Services at 3Keys, says that providing safe housing is a critical first step to get people off the streets, but providing supportive services is equally important in helping them stay off the streets and achieve stability.

“We want to have low-barrier services so that when people come in the door, they can immediately start getting the help they need.”

In recent months, 3Keys has been building a more robust supportive services team to better tailor programs and services for its residents, particularly at its Welcome House property, a 209-unit development located in downtown Atlanta for very low-income single adults. Residents at Welcome House have experienced homelessness and have both mental health and substance use disorders, but their needs vary greatly.

“There is such a variety of where people are with their mental health,” Diane said. “Some people are working full-time jobs so they don’t need or want as much support. But then we have people who really need more structure, more positive activities, and some even need help getting basic necessities like food.”

Diane says one initiative that’s been incredibly helpful is adding more evening activities and other social opportunities for residents to interact.

“Boredom is a huge trigger for substance abuse. Having more to do helps, and it helps residents build positive relationships with each other.”

In addition to building a more robust team, 3Keys is also looking outside of the organization for solutions that help residents maintain stability.

“We’re trying to create community partnerships,” Diane said. “Our big goal is to have more positive activities that focus on wellness and recovery.”

3Keys has been fostering relationships with other nonprofits, community organizations, and individuals to offer programs and services like yoga classes, recovery meetings, providing meals, donating necessities like food and toiletries, proving TB and HIV testing and prescription services, and much more.

“Building a community is what we’re doing so that when residents wake up, they have purposeful things to look forward to,” Diane said. “Community is something we all need.”

3Keys exists because of Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter.

Our humble beginnings started 35 years ago when Mrs. Carter was approached by several Georgians who were passionate about creating housing for people with mental illnesses. Thanks to Mrs. Carter’s early support for this organization—and her continued involvement and contributions as an honorary board chair—3Keys has empowered thousands of people to achieve stability over the last 35 years.

As we mourn the loss of Mrs. Carter, we reflect on her unwavering dedication to advance important causes, including helping people facing the challenges of mental illness and homelessness. Mrs. Carter has made the world a better place and her legacy will live on and inspire others for generations to come.

2022 Annual Report

Each year 3Keys helps hundreds of adults facing the challenges of mental illness and homelessness by providing permanent housing and onsite supportive services. Since our inception 35 years ago, we have steadily grown to become a leader in helping our community’s most vulnerable populations.

As a testament to our success, we are proud to present our latest annual report which summarizes our impact throughout metro Atlanta in 2022. Thanks to 3Keys, more than 530 formerly homeless individuals with mental illness experienced the comfort and security of a home—along with life-changing services—that helped them achieve stability, independence and a sense of accomplishment.

This report also highlights our priorities over the coming years to expand our reach and to provide more assistance to the people who need us. We also know that our decades of success and growing impact would not be possible without the generous support of donors, partners and volunteers like you, who help us achieve our mission.

With Gratitude,
