Program Overview

An Exciting Way to Engage with the Atlanta BeltLine!

The Atlanta BeltLine is more than just a trail; it’s a living, breathing community space. And you can help make it even better! Our Adopt-the-BeltLine program lets you become a steward of this vibrant urban oasis.

A partnership between the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership, Atlanta BeltLine Inc., and Trees Atlanta, the Adopt-the-Atlanta BeltLine program offers an opportunity for community groups to play a direct role in helping improve and maintain the Atlanta BeltLine.

What to Expect

  • To commit to a one-year, renewable segment adoption with monthly volunteer day.
  • A training and orientation session.
  • Different segments of the BeltLine will require different volunteer support. Some segments may only necessitate litter clean-up, while others may need to be cleared of brush or invasive plants, weeded, or monitored for maintenance concerns.
  • That you’ll improve the morale of your peers by working side-by-side on a project that’s transforming Atlanta!

Adoption Group Types

 

There are two categories of adoption groups with slightly different requirements:

  • Local groups are the eyes and ears for the adopted segment and will generally conduct monthly (or more frequent) site visits and smaller clean-ups. Minimum requirement: 3 hours per month.
  • Corporate groups will generally organize larger quarterly projects, visiting the segment less frequently than the local group but meeting a higher number of volunteer hours. During the initial adoption conversation, corporate groups will discuss donating to support the Adopt-the-BeltLine program with the Volunteer Manager. Minimum requirement: 15 hours per quarter.
