Call for Nominations!

The Elections Committee is requesting recommendations from GAMFT membership for two positions that will be elected in 2026. Next year, we will be voting on the offices of Vice President and Elections Committee Member.  These positions are important to the continued growth and relevance of our organization so we hope that every member of GAMFT will give thoughtful consideration to the selection of candidates for this year’s election.

If you have a recommendation and/or if you are interested in serving in one of the positions to be voted upon this year, please contact any one of the following three members of the 2024 Elections committee:

Chair: Tommy Hampton, IV; LMFT; CFVIPF  – thampton4@peacewaycms.com

DeKeisha Teasley, LMFT – drteasley09@gmail.com

Marie Woods, LMFT, CSAT-S, CMAT, CPTT, SEP – marie@mariewoodslmft.com

When we receive your recommendation, a member of the Elections Committee will contact that person to ascertain his or her interest and willingness to serve.  The completed slate of nominees will be presented at GAMFT’s Annual Business Meeting which will be held in May 2025 at the virtual Spring Conference.  During that meeting, membership will have the opportunity to nominate additional candidates from the floor.  A nomination from the floor must be supported by a minimum of 10 voting members and must have the consent of the individual being nominated.

Voting will take place by electronic ballot in July 2025.  If a paper ballot is preferred, contact the GAMFT office the first week of July. Newly elected officers will then take their positions on January 1, 2026.
