Hope heals.

It truly does. Each day we witness the transformative impact of giving hope to women. A calm, caring household. A warm meal. A new friend. A trusting counselor. A shared struggle. Many of our residents are ready to rebuild and commit to sober living, but don’t have the means or family support to begin their journey.

Our Mission

Georgia's Friends provides programs and services in the Charlottesville-Albemarle community to help women suffering from drug and alcohol addiction and co-occurring mental health challenges.

  • Georgia’s House provides hope and healing through a safe, therapeutic and structured home for women in the early stages of recovery.

  • Georgia’s Cottage is our bridge to the community, offering programming in support of women in recovery in our area.

Georgia’s Friends encompasses an engaged network of donors, volunteers, civic leaders and health and human services experts who strive to deliver hope and healing to women in recovery in Charlottesville. We are grateful for your interest and invite you to consider giving, volunteering or sharing our mission with a woman in need.
