GSHP Committees

GSHP’s work is driven by members who step forward to contribute their time, ideas, and expertise. Committees are where that work happens, such as, shaping education, advancing practice, and supporting the profession across Georgia.

Whether you’re looking to share your perspective, stay engaged with key issues, or take on a more active role, committee involvement is one of the most impactful ways to participate in GSHP.
