DeKalb offers transportation services from all its warming centers to Frontline for individuals who wish to take advantage of those centralized services.

Please note that DeKalb County fire stations will not be activated as overnight warming center locations. 

However, Avondale Fire Station Fire Station No. 3, located at 100 N. Clarendon Avenue, Avondale Estates, GA 30002, will function as a transportation pickup location to Frontline.
