“GIVING A HAND UP, NOT A HAND OUT”
The Atlanta Step-Up Society, (ASUS) Inc. is a 501 (c) (3) non profit corporation who is a group of people who were once homeless, hopeless and who have recovered from addictions to alcohol and other mind-altering chemicals. Our mission is to help the suffering, homeless and hopeless to rebuild their lives and to recover from their addictions.
ASUS has offered exceptional service in the community since 1994. ASUS was the proud winner of the TBS Super 17 Volunteerism Award in the area of poverty issues for 1999 and is a member of the Atlanta Better Business Bureau. ASUS maintains its partnership with the United Way in the Shelter to Home Initiative
Our organization is located in the renewal communities of Atlanta with a high degree of poverty. Our primary purpose is to provide a viable solution for the homeless and otherwise under-privileged individuals, enabling them to become more productive members of our society.
