• More than a Nonprofit

    Rooted in the heart of Athens, Georgia, Sheats Social Services is more than a nonprofit – it's a local lifeline. Our mission is simple: empower families to thrive. From work readiness programs and everyday assistance for parents to reading support and youth development resources for kids, we bridge gaps the government can't fill. Join us in building a community where every family member can embrace the life they deserve.

Who

Families in Northeast Georgia face economic barriers, limited job opportunities, and educational disparities. Underserved neighborhoods lack essential resources, contributing to social and economic challenges. We are here to serve the families affected by these challenges.

What

Our programs go beyond charity, providing financial support, career exploration, neighborhood-specific initiatives, and parent-student advocacy. Our goal is to equip individuals with resources to thrive and pass on success from generation to generation.

Why

The work we do is an opportunity to shape futures and break cycles of drug abuse, minimum education, and traumatic experiences. We take our services directly to underserved neighborhoods to ensure easy access to those who need us most.

Our mission is to encourage self-sufficiency by providing families with resources and skills to help overcome life’s adversities and to break educational, economic & social barriers.
