Little Five Points Community
Community Center in Atlanta, GA
The Little 5 Points Community Center (L5PCC) is a non-profit entity composed of partner organizations, community leaders, and neighborhood representatives. Our resident partners are non-profit groups with a huge array of aims with the common thread of community awareness and improvement. In 1919 the present building opened its doors as the new Moreland Elementary School, replacing the former Neel Academy site on Moreland Avenue. It served the Inman and Candler Park communities as a public school continuously through 1982.

History
read moreIn 1982 several community groups primarily led by WRFG Radio, asked for a 10 year lease on the closed school building at 1083 Austin Ave NE in Atlanta, the old Moreland School. The school board first leased and then sold the building to the new non-profit corporation set up to own and manage the building. Mindful of the threat that rising costs would push non-profit arts and service groups out of the neighborhoods where they developed and which they served; L5PCC, Inc. has endeavored to provide low-cost space for community-based non-profit groups.
