This record could not be verified. The address (100 Rogers St NE, Atlanta 30317) and phone ((404) 590-5683) on file actually belong to Kirkwood UCC, a United Church of Christ congregation in Atlanta's Kirkwood neighborhood, not to Trinity United Methodist Church. The Trinity United Methodist Church that exists in Atlanta is a separate congregation located downtown at 265 Washington Street SW (30303) with a different phone number, so this entry appears to be a data-mismatch and the existing 'food pantry / mental health / crisis services' details could not be confirmed for any 'Trinity UMC' at this address.

This record does not match a real, identifiable community service organization. It is filed as 'Paulding County Government Information Lines,' but the phone number on file uses area code 478 (central Georgia, the Macon/Jefferson County region) while Paulding County, GA is in metro Atlanta and uses 770 numbers (the county's main line is 770-443-7500). The existing description also refers to 'Jefferson County,' so the entry appears to be mislabeled or copied from another county and could not be verified.

The Center for Health & Rehabilitation is a Fulton County behavioral health clinic (run with River Edge Behavioral Health) that helps adults with mental health and substance use problems.

No organization called the 'Georgia Tuberculosis Program' could be verified at this address or phone number. The address (1849 The Exchange SE, Ste 200, Atlanta 30339) and phone (404) 881-1020 actually belong to the Medical Association of Atlanta / Medical Association of Georgia, which is a professional membership group for physicians, not a tuberculosis clinic or a public health service. This entry appears to be a data error and is not a usable community resource for residents seeking help.
