When you join, **we do the hard part** — researching the issues, identifying your legislators, and making sure your voice is heard where it matters. Each week, we send you an **Action Alert** covering the most pressing issue facing Georgia's prisons right now. Then we advocate on your behalf by sending personalized letters, emails, and postcards to your state representatives — so even when life gets busy, your voice doesn't go silent. Three Simple Steps ## How It Works 1 ### Sign Up Below Enter your name, email, and address. We'll automatically identify your state House and Senate representatives so every letter reaches the right people — the legislators who actually represent you. 2 ### Receive Your Action Alert Each week, you'll receive an alert explaining the current issue — what's happening, why it matters, and what we're doing about it. You'll always know exactly what's being sent on your behalf. 3 ### We Advocate for You We send thoughtful, personalized letters to your legislators on your behalf — each one unique, each one written as a constituent in their district. Your representatives hear from you consistently on the issues that matter most. The families who are suffering the most know the system the best.

You've been re-enrolled in the GPS Advocacy Network. Your legislators: ### Something went wrong Common Questions ## What You Should Know ### What exactly gets sent to my legislators? Each week we craft a unique, personalized letter about a specific issue — like medical neglect, parole reform, or conditions of confinement. The letters are written as you, a constituent in their district, advocating for change. You receive a copy of every letter so you always know what was sent. ### Can I opt out? Absolutely. Every email includes an unsubscribe link. One click and you're out — no questions asked. ### Why do you need my address? Georgia legislators represent specific districts. Your address lets us find your exact House and Senate representatives so the letters go to the right people — the ones who actually represent you. Your address is also printed at the bottom of each letter, so your legislators can see you live in their district and can write back to you. ### Is my information safe? Your information is used only for advocacy. The letters sent for you carry your name and address, and your phone number if you give one, to your own legislators. We never share, sell, or distribute your personal data to anyone else. ### How is this different from a petition? Petitions are easy to ignore. Our letters are individualized — each one is different, written specifically for your legislator, from a real constituent in their district. Legislators pay attention to constituent correspondence because it represents votes. What You're Fighting For ## Two Plans. One Mission. As an Advocate, your voice powers GPS's two active reform campaigns. Every letter you send pushes Georgia closer to real change. [Active Campaign ### End the Warehouse Transform Prisons to Rehabilitation $1.8B on prisons, $52/person on rehab. Two tracks: litigation to reduce overcrowding + evidence-based programs that actually work. Read the Plan →](/end-the-warehouse/) [Active Campaign ### Vision 2027 Post-Conviction Justice Reform Three model bills for the 2027 legislature: restore habeas corpus, fix ineffective counsel, create Conviction Integrity Units. The legislature doesn't need new laws — it needs to enforce two dormant statutes it already passed. Read the Plan →](/vision2027/) Bring Someone With You ## One More District Is One More Vote Legislators answer to the people who can vote for them, so an advocate only speaks into the district they live in. There are 236 seats under the Gold Dome. The fastest way to cover more of them is for you to send this to one person in Georgia.
