Mission

East Lake Initiative (ELI) was founded in 2010 after tutors in the local elementary school noticed that many students lived transient lifestyles due to a lack of affordable and safe housing. ELI was formed to help families navigate the obstacles that are blocking their path to home ownership. Our mission is to partner to strategically provide holistic community development within the greater East Lake area. Through our 25-year commitment to this community, we are working to foster thriving city blocks in the areas around Barrett Elementary School and Ossie Ware Mitchell Middle School. We offer holistic change in the community by focusing on education, housing, health and nutrition, and economic development

About

Housing - ELI is helping to bring back pride in the neighborhood through house to home transformations. By acquiring distressed properties and renovating them to be quality homes, ELI is able to offer tenants safe and secure housing options. Residents enter into a mentoring relationship that prepares them to be homeowners.

Through ELI's launch homeownership program, families can move into an ELI owned apartment for 12 months while they begin preparing for the road to homeownership.
