Every week, families across Atlanta line up at the APS Student & Family Support Hub, where bags of fresh food and essential supplies are distributed to those who need them most. For many, this weekly tradition is more than just groceries — it’s a source of relief, hope, and community.

The Mayor’s Office of Violence Reduction has been proud to join forces with the Support Hub, working side by side to fight food insecurity and strengthen neighborhoods. Together, the partnership has ensured that hundreds of families have access not only to meals, but also to the support and sense of belonging that help communities thrive.

“This kind of partnership is what building safer, stronger communities looks like,” said staff from the Mayor’s Office of Violence Reduction. “It’s neighbors looking out for neighbors, and organizations stepping up to meet families where they are.”

The collaboration reflects a shared commitment: making sure no one in Atlanta is left behind. By pairing the City’s focus on reducing violence with APS’s dedication to students and families, the effort goes beyond meeting immediate needs — it creates a ripple effect of stability, care, and trust.

The Mayor’s Office of Violence Reduction looks forward to continuing this partnership with APS and to expanding opportunities that uplift families across the city.
