SCAD is led by a volunteer Board and Officers who set strategy, oversee science and education, and protect the society’s finances and ethics. An Executive Director and standing committees, covering areas like Membership, Marketing, Awards, and Student Fellowships, turn board policies into daily work. Past presidents and fellows advise the group, ensuring continuity and institutional memory.
