The Southern Area of The Links, Incorporated is comprised of seven states and the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. Southern Area Links hail from the Deep South states of Mississippi and Alabama; the French tradition and Creole culture of Louisiana; the coastal wonders of North and South Carolina; the southern charm of Georgia; the emerald coasts and sugar beaches of sunny Florida, and the sun-drenched tropical beauty of the Bahamas.

The Southern Area is committed to provide service oriented programming within our five-facet program initiatives to meet the needs of our respective communities.
