Elections Committee

Welcome to the Elections Committee webpage!

Dear SNMA Family,

As we embark on election season, we invite you to join us in bridging today’s vision with tomorrow’s enduring legacy. Our leaders are the cornerstone of a future that will transform medicine, and this season’s candidates are poised to bring strong, unifying leadership that advances our mission and bridges critical gaps across our field.

This page serves as your comprehensive resource on the SNMA Elections, including the Elections Committee structure, open national positions, and key information about the electoral process. The Elections Committee is committed to encouraging and supporting members eager to step into national leadership roles within SNMA. Learn more about our committee’s goals and initiatives in the “Our Work” section.

Your interest in leadership within SNMA is invaluable, and I encourage you to explore the incredible opportunities available. Our National Board of Directors offers a variety of impactful roles, which you can find detailed in the “National Board Positions” section. Additionally, the “Announcement and Resources” section provides the latest descriptions of each position along with essential information on the electoral process.

With the theme for the 2024-2025 election cycle, Bridging Diverse Leaders, Shaping Our Legacy: Empowering Every Voice, Uniting for an Inspiring Future, we are dedicated to advancing a future shaped by unity and impactful leadership.

The General Elections Application Packet is located in the "Resources" section of this page. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me, the National President-Elect, or the Elections Committee Chair at presidentelect@snma.org.

Together, let’s build a future that truly reflects our mission and values. Thank you for your commitment to SNMA and for helping us bridge the path forward.
