The Center for Children and Young Adults
Open Gate exists to provide a refuge for children who are victims of abuse and neglect.
Another Chance
Another Chance is the only shelter of its kind in the state of Georgia because of the diversity of its target
population and the array of therapeutic services offered.
Turning Point
Turning Point is designed to provide vocational and independent living skills for older adolescent males
enabling them to become self-sufficient adults and in turn decrease their dependency on social services.
- The Center is responsible for the operation of two temporary
emergency shelters for abused and neglected children and
youth, Open Gate (ages birth to 11) and Another Chance
(ages 12-17). The Center also operates a transitional living
program, Turning Point, for older adolescent males ages 17 –
21. Turning Point serves young adults who have been in the
foster care or juvenile justice system for most of their lives.
JLCM was instrumental in starting Open Gate in 1984 which
was the cornerstone for the Center for Children and Young
Adults.
