The Same House aims to address social and economic challenges that impact Atlanta communities

Rodney Bullard says there’s a 20-year life expectancy difference for someone who lives in Grove Park versus someone who lives in Buckhead.

Bullard grew up in South DeKalb and now serves as the CEO of The Same House.  He says social divides are erupting into economic divides.

On Tuesday’s edition of “Closer Look,” Bullard told show host Rose Scott that the newly established B Corporation, was inspired by the words of the late Congressman John Lewis: “ We are one people. We’re one family. We all live in the same house. The house of Atlanta, Georgia.”
