The Mission of IHN Athens is to mobilize our community to help homeless families in crisis situations achieve sustainable independence. It is the goal of IHN Athens to give homeless families the opportunity to stay together as a family and the time and resources to get back on their feet.

Our approach to the fight against domestic violence combines energy of the heart with a commitment to evaluation and attention to operational efficiencies. (See our annual report available on this website for outcome data).  90 cents of every dollar contributed to Project Safe goes to programs and services directly benefiting battered women and children.    We keep overhead costs low by utilizing volunteers and student interns, seeking in-kind donations of goods and services rather than purchasing them, and sharing tasks such as answering the telephone instead of employing an office manager or administrator.
