Freedom House
Freedom House is SafeHouse Ministries' 104 bed facility for men as they seek to become productive members of the community. Over 1,000 men have stayed at Freedom House since opening in 2014. Over 60% of these men have saved enough money to move into their own permanent housing!
Our goal is to work with clients to find employment and financial stability to sustain permanent housing. Residence's experience includes meals, devotions, job programs for those unemployed and a case manager to work alongside. Freedom House is an inclusive facility and embraces relationship as a key means of finding renewal and restoration!

Testimony
Onnie lived in the darkness of severe drug addiction and multiple incarcerations for 30 years until the Lord led him to SafeHouse Ministries and Tomorrow's Hope, where he found freedom and victory! Onnie's life was so radically changed that once his own life became transformed, he devoted himself to working at Freedom House so that he could be a part of the work of helping so many others find new life and restoration in sobriety and in Christ! Onnie's life impacted hundreds of people, many of whom spoke about his impact on several of our SafeHouse Ministries podcast episodes!

History of the Freedom House
When SafeHouse began, there were no facilities in existence which allowed a man a stable living environment to be able to work and save enough money to get his own place. While emergency shelters were in operation, they did not meet the need for men in need of this type of more dependable housing. So we started praying. God eventually led us to an abandoned apartment complex in Beallwood. This property had been stripped of copper and anything of value by the time we acquired it. By God’s grace, we renovated it and opened in December of 2014. This original location for our men's shelter was known as Grace House. During 2022 God did another great miracle and gave SafeHouse Ministries an even larger facility out on Schatoulga road which we have moved the men to and where we now have 104 beds available for men as they transition back into a job and save up money for a place of their own. Over 850 men have stayed at Freedom House with over 60% leaving to permanent housing.
