MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – Sherry Williams cried tears of joy at a Macon-Bibb Planning and Zoning Commission meeting Monday.
“We bring them to our house now, and it’s great, but when your house turns into the local community center, it’s really hard,” Williams said.
Williams is the founder of an organization called ATAP Family Services. The non-profit provides professional help, youth and family services, as well as meals to people in need.
The organization contracts with property companies to provide community service programs. ATAP previously ran out of Riverwalk Apartments in Macon, but the complex sold to another management company in 2019.

Macon-Bibb Commissioners approve funding for mental health initiative
Listen to the content of this post:
MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – Macon-Bibb Commissioners voted Tuesday night to approve funding for Mayor Lester Miller’s initiative to address mental health.
“This program incorporates a holistic approach for reducing recidivism, resolving conflicts without violence, and also increasing access to mental healthcare within the Macon-Bibb community,” Miller said last month.
The county will provide The Southern Center for Choice Theory $50,000 per month for one year, using CARES Act funds, to establish cost-free mental health clinics that provide services like mental health counseling, conflict resolution counseling, and anger management classes.
