Our Approach

The resource center is an offering to community from the organizations that make up Play Fair ATL. It’s a safe and welcoming place where community members who find themselves experiencing negative impacts of the World Cup can come to be heard and connected.

Whether it’s an employer risking your safety, a public safety officer mishandling a situation, or if it’s just too hot to be outside, we’re happy to greet you and become better neighbors in the process.

Statements made to our volunteers on site will be kept strictly confidential wherever requested.

The “they” he is referring to is FIFA and the city of Atlanta.”
