We’re Empowering the Next Great Civic Leaders…

And we’re already making a powerful impact by leading change within Athens communities. To us, becoming a civic leader is all about understanding that local efforts have a global reach, and it all begins with creating local leadership opportunities that put women’s skills and passion to work right here in the Athens area. If you’re interested in developing civic leadership skills while collaborating on important efforts with a group of like-minded women, you’re in the right place!

The Junior League is a Highly Respected Organization with an Extraordinary Legacy…

The Junior League of Athens is proud of that historic reputation, but as society changes, we adapt and evolve. We strive to put our venerable values to work in modern ways; demonstrating our pride and perpetuating our legacy by serving as a powerful voice for action, justice and change throughout Athens communities. Together, we are working to empower our members to not only see the need for change, but also be the change in our communities. Will you be one of them?

Join the movement that’s dedicated to creating change, empowering leaders, and making an impact in Athens communities.
