Bald Ridge Lodge is a non-profit in Cumming, GA providing a 12-bed Group Home and Community Based Services. The Group Home serves young men (age 12 to 21) who have been removed from their homes due to abuse and neglect, while the Community Based Services serve youth and families in the community in need of support. The services offered through Community Based services include Case Management Services, Nurtured Heart Approach (TM) training for caregivers, and an Independent Living Program in development. Their mission is to provide safe and stable support to young men in the Group Home, Independent Living Program, and Community Based Services, in a manner that nurtures the youth, strengthens healthy relationships, and aids young men in their transition to adulthood.

The traditional, residential program is essentially a 30 to 120-day program. When families enter the FP program, the first goal for the adults in the family is to attain a job, if they do not already have one. Then, during their time in our program, while our host churches and volunteers are providing a place to stay and meals and through donations and grants, we assist with things such as childcare and transportation, the family can save the majority of their money earned to be ready to be independent.

More importantly, though, they strive for their families to attain sustainable independence. Therefore, each family works on personalized, weekly goals to provide them the knowledge and skills needed to be successful. Each family is also provided a mentor who will continue to work with the family beyond graduation to be a support and a link to additional services they may need.

To be a part of this life-changing difference in family’s lives, please DONATE today.
