Collaborative Partners
Collaboration (Not Competition) Is The Key To Success In Providing Social Services
It is HUGS’ desire and mission to go where the need is and to bridge the gap in social services in our community.
We offer Professional Counseling to all local organizations lacking
the resources and/or funding to offer these essential services.

E-3 is a non-profit in conjunction with Step Up Savannah. As a collaborative partner, HUGS provides weekly therapeutic/vocational counseling both in individual sessions and in discussion groups.
