Hall County Housing

This is something often taken for granted by those who have never had to think about it. Gainesville Police Department is committed to ensuring that every encounter with an officer is the start of a collaborative relationship that has a positive impact on the community. The goal is to ensure that Hall County residents are provided with the resources they need to succeed and to feel secure in the knowledge that the Gainesville Police Department is here to offer support in times of need.

When is it time to reach out for help?

  • If you are being evicted.

  • If you are escaping from domestic violence or abuse.

  • When leaving a residential or detainment facility.

  • If you need a place to sleep for the night.
