SGIA Students Selected for Georgia Legislative Internship Program
KENNESAW, Ga. | Feb 20, 2026
Six students have been selected to participate in the competitive Georgia Legislative Internship Program (GLIP) during the 2026 legislative session.
Jada B., Owen Hawkins, Meredith Haydel, Shana Johns, Southern Mullen and Kira Wolfmeier served as GLIP interns at the Georgia State Capitol. Each intern is assigned to a legislative office, where they assist with the day-to-day responsibilities of managing a legislator’s office.
The GLIP program provides college students from universities across Georgia with an opportunity to experience the state’s legislative process firsthand. Interns work directly with members of the Georgia General Assembly and legislative committees, gaining practical experience and insight into how government and policymaking operate at the state level.
Since its inception, the program has connected hundreds of students with Georgia legislators and committees, giving participants valuable opportunities to apply what they have learned in the classroom to the legislative process. For the six SGIA students, the internship offers a firsthand look at state government while developing professional skills and building connections within Georgia’s political community.
Congratulations to Jada, Owen, Meredith, Shana, Southern and Kira on completing the GLIP program and gaining valuable firsthand experience in Georgia’s legislative process!
