Living Room, an Atlanta-based nonprofit that provides housing services for people with HIV/AIDS, has expanded to Rome and Dalton.

Services include emergency financial  and long-term rental assistance. It will operate out of the Living Bridge Center in Dalton.

Gilsia Hernandez will serve as the case manager for the region's Special Needs Housing Assistance Program.

The programs will be provided through a grant from the Georgia Department of Community Affairs' Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS.
