Here’s to Life, Inc. (HTL) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing substance use disorders and HIV-related challenges in metropolitan Atlanta. Founded in 2007 by Dr. Patricia Brown, HTL has been a beacon of hope and support for the community.

Under Mr. Smith’s leadership, HTL provides vital services such as counseling, life skills training, emergency housing, and workforce development.
