Offsite Programs Although our central
facility is located in central Atlanta in the Dunwoody/Sandy
Springs area (5775 Peachtree Dunwoody Road
Building C-Suite 225), we
recognize that many participants may find it easier to
attend our programs in other parts of the Metro Atlanta
area. That’s why we’ve expanded our programs to include the
areas of Cumming, Canton, and Decatur.
