There should be a commitment to nominating a diverse slate of nominees. This includes diversity based on racial-ethnic background, gender and sexual identities, geographic locations, and institutional settings (e.g., academia, practitioners, organizations, etc.).
Important Update: The Board of Directors voted to remove the stipulation that “nominees must have attended at least one annual meeting to be considered for an elected position.” This change broadens the pool of eligible candidates, welcomes new ideas, and supports participation from members who may be unable to travel.
All nominees must be a 2025 member to be considered for an elected office. Self-nominations are welcome. Nominations should include a brief description of the nominee’s SSSP involvement and other relevant experiences. All nominations must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Friday, September 5, 2025.
If you have any questions, please contact Shannon K. Carter, Chair, Nominations Committee.
Note: If a SSSP member is interested in serving on an appointed committee, the member may select the appropriate committee when renewing their membership. The Administrative Office will give the names to the Committee on Committees for consideration.
