Why the Coalition is important to me:
I am incredibly proud of the contributions we have made to the community. The Buckhead Coalition is advancing key public safety initiatives and working with organizations dedicated to supporting those experiencing homelessness. The Coalition’s work reaffirms our commitment to improving Buckhead as an integral part of the City of Atlanta. As our community continues to transform and grow, The Buckhead Coalition will remain at the forefront of bolstering safety and quality of life for all.
