GAINESVILLE, Ga. – A longtime attorney and community advocate has been named the 2026 Gainesville Woman of Distinction by Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia.
The organization announced Tuesday that Kelly Anne Miles, a nationally respected family law attorney, will receive the honor recognizing women whose leadership and service reflect the Girl Scout Promise and Law.
Miles has spent more than four decades advocating for Georgia families in and out of the courtroom. In addition to her legal work, she has played a significant role in strengthening civic life in Gainesville and Hall County. She is a founding and diamond member of WomenSource, Inc., and has served on the board of United Way of Hall County, Girls Incorporated of Northeast Georgia, North Georgia Community Foundation, Rape Response, and the Gateway House Domestic Violence Shelter.
A Girl Scout alum, Miles “exemplifies the lifelong impact of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience,” the organization said in its announcement. Her commitment to service, justice, and community mirrors the values she learned as a young Girl Scout and continues to model for girls across the region.
Miles will be honored at the Gainesville Women of Distinction luncheon on March 11, 2026 at 1 p.m. at the Ramsey Conference Center at Lanier Technical College. Sponsorship opportunities are available, and tickets will go on sale soon.
