Atmore Main Street, a designated community of Main Street Alabama works to strengthen Downtown Atmore through economic development, historic preservation, and community partnerships, supporting a vibrant and sustainable district for residents, businesses, and visitors.

Atmore Main Street follows the Main Street Approach, a transformative, place-making, community-driven framework developed by the National Main Street Center to revitalize historic downtowns and neighborhood commercial districts by leveraging local assets and focusing on four key areas—Organization (building partnerships), Promotion (creating a positive image), Design (enhancing physical appearance), and Economic Vitality (business recruitment and growth)—to create vibrant, thriving centers of community and economic activity.

The Atmore Main Street Foundation is a separate 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit organization that serves as the fundraising and charitable support arm of Main Street Atmore (The Program). The Foundation helps financially support the mission and projects of "the Program" through tax-deductible donations, grants, sponsorships, and other charitable contributions.
