Leadership
Dr. Paul Graetz
CEO & President
“Creating a world that works for everyone, not just a few” is the passion of Dr. Paul Graetz, CEO and President of Crossroads Community Center in Atlanta. Dr. Graetz has served as the inspiration for this essential compassion program for 23 years with a vision of caring for the hungry and or homeless of metropolitan Atlanta.
His dream has been lived out through programs of providing weekly hot meals, distribution of clothing, groceries for those in need and most of all offering the homeless a mailing address to receive their mail, obtain a state ID and other identification to rebuild their lives.
Over the years Dr. Graetz has built relationships with compassion programs across the city to build bridges of connection with various resourcing agencies. These bridges have helped launch the 23-year success of Crossroads Community Center as a key service agency for the homeless.
Dr. Graetz, is man of positive faith that believes in the power of sharing, caring and loving one another. This has been the guiding mantra for Crossroads Community Center as an intersection between service and need.
