As the leading national association for journalists in the U.S., the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) is organized into regions.
SPJ Region 3 covers Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. We hold an Annual Conference with great speakers and we provide support to each of your state chapters.
How to Join:
Joining SPJ and your STATE CHAPTER can be done in two easy steps:
- Join or renew your membership with SPJ National by going to https://www.spj.org/joinapp.as.
- Be SURE to add the STATE CHAPTER that you want to be a member of located just beneath the Membership Type category under Local Chapter Dues.
Now you’re a member! As a new member of SPJ, you will begin to receive emails from SPJ National, from SPJ Region 3 and from your State Chapter. Be sure to go to the website of your state chapter, for updates on events, meetings, and interesting articles on SizingUpTheSouth.com.
EACH State Chapter also has its own Facebook page and Twitter feed. “Like” or “Follow” them today! Here are live links for your convenience:
