Since 2021, the Kelly Administration has sought to activate the desolate Airport Inn and turn it into an essential part of our strategy to build off-ramps from homelessness. Now, real progress is being made!

Thanks to a generous $2.3 million seed donation from the Maclellan Foundation, renovations will soon begin — creating Provident Place. This facility will be a secure and professionally operated shelter designed to help families with children move from crisis to stability, doubling the number of available beds for families experiencing homelessness in Chattanooga. We couldn't have made this a reality without the tremendous work and collaboration of the foundation, community partners, and public and private entities. https://chattanooga.gov/stay-informed/latest-news/city-chattanooga-donate-airport-inn-grateful-gobbler-move-forward
