MAN-R.I.S.E. is held at the offices of Positive Impact, located at

139 Ralph McGill Boulevard, Suite 301, Atlanta, GA  30308

The location is near the intersection of Piedmont Avenue and Ralph McGill Boulevard, near the Civic Center and the Georgia Power Building.

Upon arrival to the building, there is a side door in the alleyway that runs between our building and the business next door, Bark ATL, a dog daycare center. Once in the building, go up the stairs to the third floor and to your left you will see Positive Impact. If you see that you are going to be late for the event, please call and inform the facilitator; otherwise, when you arrive the door may be locked and you will be unable to enter the building. If you will be more than 10 minutes late, please reschedule your time as arrivals beyond 10 minutes after starting cannot be permitted.

Parking is available behind the building.

Traveling South on I-75/85 Exit 249 D; North Ave. (The same exit for Georgia Tech and the Varsity.)

Parking can be a nightmare in this area at times, depending on the events going on that day. There is limited free parking behind our building. Once you turn off Ralph McGill Boulevard into the alleyway drive, go all the way PAST the building to the back lot and if there is a space you can park there for free (disregard any of the "reserved" signs behind the building). That is a very small cramped lot with limited spaces and sometimes those fill up quickly on weekends if other agencies in the building are having activities.

The only other parking option at this time is to find on-street parking nearby. Some of these spaces are free, but most of them are metered and you must pay to park or you will be towed.

Under NO circumstances should you park in the alleyway spaces or the spaces immediately to your left in front of the wooden wall. Those spaces belong to the building next door, Bark ATL, a pet sitting business, and they WILL have your car towed.

MARTA is an easy way to get to the experience as we are only 2.5 blocks from the station. Take the train to the Civic Center MARTA Station, exit the station and head south on West Peachtree Street. The first intersection is W. Peachtree and Ralph McGill Boulevard. Turn left and head up the hill to Peachtree Street. Cross Peachtree and walk one more block to Courtland. Cross Courtland and about half-way down that block on the right is our building, the second brick building on the right. If you get to Piedmont you have walked too far.
