Programs described in its return (3)
  1. $1.4 million spent. Property NavigationThe Open Doors property navigation program is the core and vital front-line service that recruits properties and management companies for the Open Doors portfolio. Open Doors has continued to grow and expand. In 2024, our navigation team partnered with 185 participating property owners and management companies listing 742 multifamily communities as well as our 150 nonprofit collaborative partners. Open Doors placed more people and households in the Atlanta region in 2024 compared to any other operating year by securing rental homes for 1,223 people (731 households), bringing our total housed since 2014 to over 12,500 people.
  2. $199,253 spent. TechnologyOpen Doors continue to showcase a large portfolio of available and affordable rental units through groundbreaking web applications. With our technology solutions, our partners report finding available units and obtaining approvals in under four weeks on average. Open Doors completed a refresh of our Property Listing App, including better filter and search functionality, an updated and refined user interface, and an inclusion of industry-standard property information and amenity listings.
  3. $951,970 spent. Housing SupportsOpen Doors has applied the successful housing process developed for agencies working households exiting homelessness and applied it to a program called Housing Support Navigation. This program directly serves consumers who don't have case management support, but are experiencing housing insecurity. Through pilot programs with the Home Depot Foundation, Veteran Affairs at Fort McPherson, the City of Atlanta Housing Help Center, and other organizations, Open Doors provided "light-touch" housing navigation services. This includes unit location, lease execution, and post-placement supports to ensure housing stability. These pilot programs housed 133 people in 2024.
