Need Assistance?
Midtown Assistance Center’s staff is working remotely to provide assistance with:
-rent payments (eviction protection)
-utility bills (disconnection prevention)
-food/groceries
-MARTA cards for employment
We are helping with rent and utilities, but we no longer take applications directly for financial assistance. MAC is working with ARCHI (link below) to accept cases. Please note that due to an extreme volume of cases not all applications will be sent to MAC.
Please read below about MAC’s program, and other assistance programs. There is also legal advice hotlines and agencies, as well as other financial assistance agencies in Fulton county. We can potentially help with Food and/or MARTA for jobs/interviews – see the Food Resources section.
MAC currently serves 10 zip codes in Atlanta – 30303, 30308, 30309, 30310, 30312, 30313, 30314, 30315, 30318, and 30363. http://midtownassistancecenter.org/request-help/
ARCHI Rental assistance application
Atlanta Regional Collaborative for Health Improvement (ARCHI) will be working with agencies to distribute their cases to programs that might be able to help. MAC will put a section and link to their form on our website Request Help page. Due to the high volume of requests, not every case will be placed with an agency. Here is a link to the ARCHI website application https://archicollaborative.org/research-resources/help/
For questions please email Relief@ARCHIcollaborative.org
