@MayorOfMARTA@ChrisTest82 Not with MAF funding, but yes about advocating for it to be a warming center. There are several factors that determine a good location and that location currently doesn’t meet the requirements.
The City of Atlanta will open warming centers ahead of colder temperatures.
The centers will open:
Tuesday, January 7, 8:00 PM – Wednesday, January 8, 6:00 AM
Wednesday, January 8, 8:00 PM – Thursday, January 9, 6:00 AM
Thursday, January 9, 8:00 PM – Friday, January 10, 6:00 AM
Locations:
Central Park Recreation Center: 400 Merritts Ave. NE, Atlanta 30308
Old Adamsville Recreation Center: 3404 Delmar Lane NW, Atlanta, GA 30331 (Old Adamsville Recreation Center will continue to serve as an overflow location.)
Transportation will be provided by Fulton County nightly at 8:00 PM from the Gateway Center, 275 Pryor Street SW, Atlanta, GA 30303. Return trips will be available upon deactivation. Activation times are subject to change based on the updated National Weather Service forecast.
Please share to help ensure everyone stays safe and warm. #OneSafeCity

🚨 FREE DIAPERS TOMORROW! 🚨
Join us tomorrow 12/6, from 10 AM to 12 PM, at The Villages at Carver Family YMCA for a special walk-up event!
Together with @HelpingMamas and @carverymca, we’ll be distributing free diapers and other baby essentials, while supplies last.
This holiday season, I’m taking steps to help families in District 1 with an additional diaper distribution. On 12/6 from 10 AM to 12 PM, join me, @HelpingMamas, and @carverymca at 1600 Pryor Rd SW, Atlanta, GA 30315 for free diapers and baby essentials while supplies last.
As a father, I know how much love and dedication it takes to raise a child—and how expensive it can be. My wife Shalya and my two daughters are my greatest treasures, grounding me as I work to serve our community.
I am so very thankful to have them in my life. They remind me every day why it’s so important to work together to build a city where every family has the support they need to thrive.
This walk-up event will provide free diapers and baby essentials to families, while supplies last.
Spread the word—together, we can support more families this holiday season!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our annual diaper distribution!
This year, we're going even further. I'm proud to announce an additional diaper distribution to make sure every family has access to vital resources. Join me, @HelpingMamas, and @carverymca on 12/6 at 10am.
