“As we reflect on 2021, it is clear that no one person can achieve our vision,” said President Dr. Pamela Padilla in a statement. “That’s why I am so pleased to welcome these diverse and committed leaders. Together, the Board of Directors will work, alongside members, partners, and staff, to accomplish the ambitious goals laid out by SACNAS’ five-year strategic plan, including a doubling of our membership by 2026. Together, we will achieve more.”

SACNAS serves a growing community of over 28,000 supporters including 8,200+ members and 133 student and professional chapters throughout the United States, including Guam and Puerto Rico.

“We are grateful to the membership for voting at a record number, and the Board Members who will be completing their term this year,” added Dr. Padilla. “Thank you for your time, energy, and perspective as we chart a new path forward for our communities.”
