ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, August 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Voices of Muslims (VoM), Georgia's leading coalition advocating for Muslim American communities, today announced the establishment of the Fayette County Chapter as part of its ongoing Chapter Development Initiative.

The Chapter Development Initiative, launched following the Board of Directors meeting in May 2025, continues to gain momentum with the successful establishment of local VoM chapters throughout the state.

The Fayette County Chapter is led by a dynamic team of community leaders who bring diverse expertise and deep commitment to serving their local Muslim American population. The chapter leadership structure reflects VoM's emphasis on collaborative governance and inclusive representation.

"I am honored to lead the Fayette County Chapter and work alongside such dedicated community members," said Chapter President Naquila Gilchrist-Jalajel. "Our goal is to build meaningful connections within our community while fostering understanding and cooperation with our neighbors throughout Fayette County."

VoM's Chapter Development Team continues to provide essential guidance and support for this expansion, combining experienced organizational leadership with local community expertise. The team ensures each chapter reflects the unique needs and characteristics of its local Muslim American community while maintaining alignment with VoM's core mission and values.

"Supporting the establishment and growth of local chapters like Fayette County is at the heart of our expansion strategy," said Dr. Nausheen Naveed, VoM Treasurer and Chapter Development Team member. These chapters create lasting impact by addressing local needs while strengthening our collective voice across Georgia."

● Ms. Naquila Gilchrist-Jalajel – President
● Ms. Maryam Khan – Vice President
● Mr. Asad Majeed – General Secretary
