Why It Matters

GaRID serves interpreters across six regions throughout Georgia, representing diverse communities—from metro hubs to rural districts and everything in between. Each region reflects unique voices, needs, and opportunities for connection and service.

To keep our statewide network strong, we are actively seeking members in every region who are willing to help lead, coordinate local engagement, support events, and amplify GaRID’s mission at the regional level.

Whether you are in the mountains of Region 1, the heart of Atlanta in Region 3, the coast in Region 5, or anywhere in between — your region matters, your perspective matters, and your involvement makes a difference.
