Please join FRID for our 2025 Annual General Membership Meeting (Annual Business Meeting – ABM) and help shape the direction of FRID for the coming year.
The FRID Board of Directors invites all our members to the ABM, which will be held in a hybrid format on:
Saturday, October 25, 2025
9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. (tentative- It may end up being 10a-12p)
Onsite: St. Petersburg College, 2465 Drew Street, Clearwater, FL (Room #ES 104)
Online: Will receive the Zoom link once Registered
Click here to register (free for everyone) for the ABM. Please register according to how you will attend.
During the meeting, Board members and Committee Chairs will give updates on the work they have been doing, members will receive a summary and reflection of FY 2024/2025, and the floor will be open for motions (submission form will be shared prior to the meeting). We will also announce the recipient of the 2025 Distinguished Service Award!
This meeting is open for both members and non-members to attend at no charge. Register now to reserve your spot.
✨ Make a day of it! The ABM is scheduled to start just before It’s a Deaf Thing—a Deaf community expo happening onsite from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. at St. Petersburg College.
In addition, FRID is working to schedule CEU-bearing workshop(s) onsite and hybrid immediately following the ABM or later in the day. We hope to provide at least a 3-hour block of professional development opportunities.

The FRID ABM will be presented in ASL with English Interpretation provided by a mentor/mentee interpreter team.
If you require accommodations, please e-mail president@fridcentral.org no later than October 1, 2025.
