The Problem

A serious problem exists among newborns...

Every day in Atlanta hospitals nursery beds sit filled with babies that do not need to be there but have no where else to go. Abusive or drug addicted parents often prevent these babies from returning home, and the hospital has to "board" homeless babies until they can be placed in foster or adoptive homes.

The costs of this problem are two-fold:

·the hospital and taxpayers have to pay the exorbitant costs of keeping babies in hospital beds long past the time when they could be safely discharged;

·the stunted development of the children, who now have to spend some part of their formative years in the sterile environment of a hospital rather than a warm, loving home.


There now is a place for these children to live in an environment that is warm, loving and nurturing, and more cost-effective until they can be placed in a permanent home. Click here to find out what what MY HOUSE can do for children in these situations.
