For Businesses
As you begin to strengthen your business strategy during this period of uncertainty, we will maintain a list of resources for:
- Programs and resources made available through recent government action
- Technical assistance

We are ever mindful of the needs of our community members in the arts & culture and nonprofit sectors, and we will continue to provide helpful information as it is available.

The BeltLine is first and foremost a transit corridor. While our number one priority is slowing the spread of COVID-19, the Atlanta BeltLine is a key transportation corridor for many Atlantans. It provides critical connections to groceries, medical supplies and services, and household essentials, in addition to spaces for maintaining mental health during a time of isolation.
