”MAD HOUSERS Inc. is an Atlanta-based non-profit corporation engaged in charitable work, research and education. The Mad Housers are advocates for homeless individuals, the development of low income housing, and we help people develop the skills and knowledge for constructing and rehabilitating housing and shelter.
