About Us
We Believe This Lifes About Give For Poor People
Since our founding in 1984, the Clayton County Association Against Family Violence, Inc. Commonly known as Securus House has been a beacon of hope for individuals escaping family violence. What began as a single shelter has evolved into a comprehensive support system offering safe housing, counseling, advocacy, and essential resources for survivors in Clayton County and the greater Metro Atlanta area.
Over the years, our commitment has grown stronger, and so have our services. Today, we stand as a multifaceted agency dedicated to empowering survivors and helping them rebuild their lives with dignity and strength.
