Something special is on the way.
We're building a new digital home for the Pelagie Foundation: and we wanted you to be the first to know. This isn't just a website launch. It's a promise. A commitment. A place where dignity, healing, and hope come together for those who need it most.
If you've ever felt invisible, overlooked, or left behind by systems that were supposed to help you: this is for you. We see you. We believe in you. And we're here to walk alongside you.
What Is the Pelagie Promise?
The Pelagie Promise is simple: Everyone deserves a safe place to heal, and no one should have to do it alone.
We believe that healing isn't just about having a roof over your head or access to a doctor. It's about being treated with dignity. It's about having someone in your corner who understands that you're more than your circumstances. It's about rebuilding not just your life, but your sense of self-worth.
That's why we've built our work around three core pillars:
✓ Housing Support – Safe, stable housing assistance for those in crisis
✓ Primary Care Behavioral Health – Compassionate mental and physical healthcare that treats the whole person
✓ Salon Therapy – Dignity-focused personal care that restores confidence and self-esteem
These aren't just services. They're lifelines. And they're all rooted in one belief: you deserve better, and we're here to prove it.
Who We Serve (And Why It Matters)
At Pelagie Foundation, we focus on three communities who are often underserved, underrepresented, and underestimated:
Veterans
You served your country with honor. Now it's our turn to serve you. Whether you're transitioning out of service, facing housing instability, or navigating the complex world of VA benefits, we're here to help. Our programs are designed specifically with veterans in mind: because we understand that your journey doesn't end when the uniform comes off.
Women Facing Domestic Violence
Leaving an abusive situation is one of the bravest things you'll ever do. We know it's also one of the hardest. Our emergency housing assistance, behavioral health support, and salon therapy services are here to help you reclaim your safety, your dignity, and your future. You don't have to have it all figured out. You just have to take the first step, and we'll be there to walk the rest of the path with you.
Seniors
Growing older shouldn't mean being forgotten. Whether you're facing housing insecurity, limited access to healthcare, or simply feeling isolated, we're here to remind you that your story isn't over. You matter. Your needs matter. And you deserve care that honors your dignity and respects your independence.
Housing: More Than Just a Roof
When we talk about housing, we're not just talking about a place to sleep. We're talking about stability. Safety. A foundation to rebuild your life.
Our Housing Support Programs provide:
✓ Emergency shelter assistance for families and individuals in crisis
✓ Transitional housing support for veterans and survivors
✓ Rapid rehousing services to help you move from crisis to stability
✓ Application assistance and case management to navigate complex systems
✓ Living enhancements like furniture, household items, and essentials
We work with you to create a personalized plan that addresses your unique situation. Because your path to stability won't look like anyone else's: and that's okay. We meet you where you are and help you get where you want to go.

Primary Care Behavioral Health: Healing the Whole Person
Your mental health and physical health aren't separate: they're connected. That's why our Primary Care Behavioral Health approach treats the whole person, not just symptoms.
Through our Pelagie Care Clinic, we offer:
✓ Telehealth services across Georgia for accessible, convenient care
✓ Integrated behavioral health and primary care
✓ Trauma-informed care that respects your experiences
✓ Support for PTSD, anxiety, depression, and more
✓ Care coordination to ensure you're never navigating the system alone
We believe healthcare should be compassionate, affordable, and designed around your needs: not the other way around. Whether you're dealing with the aftermath of trauma, managing chronic conditions, or simply need someone to talk to, we're here.

Salon Therapy: Restoring Dignity, One Session at a Time
Here's something we've learned: sometimes healing starts with looking in the mirror and recognizing yourself again.
Our Salon Therapy program isn't just about haircuts and manicures (though those are pretty great too). It's about dignity. It's about taking time for yourself when the world has told you that you don't matter. It's about walking out feeling like the person you know you are: not the circumstances you've been through.
Salon Therapy includes:
✓ Professional hair care services
✓ Personal grooming and self-care support
✓ A safe, judgment-free environment
✓ Connection with caring professionals who see you
✓ Confidence-building in a supportive space
Whether you're preparing for a job interview, reconnecting with family, or simply reclaiming your sense of self, our salon is here for you.
