Any firefighter, from private to chief officer, can be a member of the organization. Dues are $25 per member per year, and membership expires one year from the date of issue.

Proud of its over 5,000 members, GSFA is the largest and oldest fire service organization in the State. GSFA provides members with an active network and resources for information, communication, and representation on a state and national level.

The Office of the Georgia State Firefighter's Association is located at 50 Lincoln Road, McDonough, Georgia 30253, at Exit 216 off Interstate 75 (30 minutes south of the Hartsfield Airport).
