Access Philippine Atlanta According to Atlanta Regional Commission data, there are about 4,500 Philippines-born persons residing in the 13-county metro area. (But this data comes from the 2000 census and is probably way understated at this point.)

The ARC also tells us that 1 out of every 7 Filipinas living in Atlanta is a Registered Nurse. (See the link to the big .pdf called "Southeastern Asians".)

Do you know or are you a new Filipino or Filipina in ATL? The Philippines Honorary Consul and Access Philippine Atlanta hold a newcomers' orientation periodically. . . about every six months it seems?

Not only that, Access Philippine Atlanta is a thoroughly thorough website for all your Pinoy needs:

An e-magazine featuring interviews, community info and job postings

Links to Philippines-targeted non profits like Project Galing

How to contact the Atlanta All-Pinoy Basketball League

Where to get Balikbayan boxes

There's also a Yahoo group Access Philippine Atlanta. . .

And, of course Fil-Am Atlanta

If these websites can't help you find it, you don't need it. . .


The Honorary Consulate is in this building, Tower Place 100 in Buckhead----->  ¶ 9:21 PM
