In memory and honors of those affected by the April 15 shooting, a memorial garden was established in Dadeville as part of a healing zone. 

This memorial garden was formed by the Dadeville Beautification Board in conjunction with the Equitable Neighborhoods Initiative. Dadeville’s ENI liaison and councilmember Teneeshia Johnson said ENI came out of the pandemic as a way to aid small, hard-hit communities with healthcare outcomes.
