A historic moment for Atlanta Fire Rescue.

This week, we proudly celebrated the launch of the first-ever AFRD Recruit Housing Program — a meaningful investment in the future of our city’s fire service. This initiative provides housing for 10 active recruits during training, allowing them to live in the communities they are preparing to protect while easing financial pressures along the way.

We were honored to hear remarks from Mayor Andre Dickens, Fire Chief Roderick M. Smith, Councilmember Jason Winston, and AFRF CEO Taos Wynn. We also appreciate the presence and support of Councilmember Wesmoreland. A special thank you to Kathy Waller for her leadership and partnership in helping bring this vision to life.

We would also like to recognize the dedicated NPU leaders who continue to champion community engagement and collaboration: Anne Phillips, Shirley Nichols, and Tarin Love. Their support reflects the power of neighborhood partnership in strengthening our city.

This milestone represents more than a ribbon cutting. It is a commitment to stability, access, and long-term investment in Atlanta’s Bravest.

A proud moment. A powerful impact. And a strong foundation for what comes next.

We’ve extended the deadline! 🚨

There’s still time to nominate an Atlanta Firefighter for Breakfast With Our Bravest (BWOB)—our annual celebration honoring extraordinary service, bravery, and dedication to our city.
