We Appreciate You And Your Hospitality
"We are so thankful for our time at CH! Staying together through our daughter’s treatment was so important to us, and you guys were the only organization willing to take in all six of us. It brought a sense of normalcy to an otherwise very uncomfortable situation. Not to mention, the proximity to the proton center is unmatched. We appreciate you and your hospitality so much!"

Warm, Supportive, And Healing Environment
Dear Christopher’s Haven Team,
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks for the incredible support and comfort you provided during our recent stay. Having a place like Christopher’s Haven, so close to the treatment center, made a world of difference during such a challenging time. Being spared the daily commute allowed us not only to rest and recharge, but also to create meaningful memories together—something we truly cherish.
The privacy and convenience of our own washer and dryer, kitchen, and private balcony made the space feel like a true home away from home. It was wonderful to be able to enjoy peaceful moments while taking in the city views. The beautiful courtyard and pool areas were also wonderful areas to relax.
The location in Midtown Atlanta was ideal—not only was it secure and quiet, but it also gave us the opportunity to explore and enjoy the city’s rich attractions, from Zoo Atlanta and the Georgia Aquarium to the Botanical Gardens and countless delicious restaurants. It was also incredibly helpful to be within reach of several major hospitals.
We especially appreciated not having to share public areas for cooking and laundry, which gave us much-needed privacy and comfort. The loft area was a perfect gathering space when we had guests, and the group events you organized were a thoughtful way to connect with others going through similar journeys.
Thank you again for providing such a warm, supportive, and healing environment. Your kindness and care will never be forgotten. If there is ever anything we can do to help, please let us know.
With gratitude,
Clayton and Lori Vaughan
Thank you Joyce's Place
​Dear Joyce's Place Team,
​
A very warm thank you to you and Joyce's Place for providing Ameera and I the accommodations August 25-October 2, 2025. It meant the world to us to have our own comfortable space to live while we were in Atlanta for her treatments. You all made our family's trying time a little easier. Your coordinator, Tawanda Searcy, was quite helpful and kind. She made everything from start to finish easy and stress-free. She even checked in with us a few times during our stay, which was thoughtful and comforting.
​
Words cannot express the gratitude we have for the assistance we received. Joyce's Place, Inc gives families going through stressful life events a little peace, being safe and comfortable. The affordable accommodations in such a central location and so close to the treatment center, really helped us being away from home for such a length of time. Thank you again.
​
Sincerely,
Delisa Robinson
