Civic Direct partnered with the City of Atlanta to launch ATL.DIRECT — a citywide civic news platform that empowers residents with direct access to real-time updates, agency announcements, public safety alerts, and local government success stories.
The result: a unified, compliant, and fully branded portal that simplifies messaging, builds community trust, and strengthens internal coordination across departments.
Every announcement, update, and initiative is published directly to the public — no media filter, no paywall.
Departments and PIOs work in sync using shared workflows, microsite templates, and editorial tools.
From emergency alerts to neighborhood spotlights, ATL.DIRECT gives residents the information that matters — clearly, consistently, and in their own language.
