Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms authorized the creation of the CoA Recovery Fund to support businesses and facilities that were adversely impacted during otherwise peaceful demonstrations in response to recent incidents highlighting systemic racism in American society. 

The purpose of the fund is to help businesses quickly address damages so they can continue to serve residents and communities with needed amenities and services. The fund will also serve to promote trade, industry, and commerce and will protect the much-needed jobs of hard-working citizens.

Applications will open Monday, June 15 at 8:00 a.m. and close Monday, June 22 at 5:00 p.m.
