Start here - Fight the Blight
You do not have to solve everything at once. Start with the pathway that fits the situation, then confirm current availability, eligibility, cost, and safety requirements directly with the organization.
If there is immediate danger, fire, a medical emergency, or an active threat, call 911. For emotional or behavioral-health crisis support in Georgia, call or text 988 or call the Georgia Crisis & Access Line at 1-800-715-4225.

A note from the Alliance
This guide is anchored in Warrenton, Georgia, and includes city, county, state, nonprofit, national, and independent pathways. A listing here does not mean Fight the Blight endorses every provider or can guarantee availability. The Hoarding Alliance is not a city or county agency, therapy practice, emergency service, or cleanup company. We will keep reviewing this page, but please confirm details directly before relying on them.
