NYSCA Governance

The NYSCA is governed by a democratically elected Board of Directors and House of Delegates. All governing officials are licensed Chiropractors who volunteer their time and efforts and pay full membership dues. Many of these officials also serve on committees, often more than one, which are tasked with specific projects as needs arise.

Further, New York State is divided into seventeen regional districts, each having its own elected officials and hosting monthly meetings and events. Each active district has representation in the House of Delegates to ensure that your voice is heard.

Officer/Director Elections

Election of Executive Officers, as well as election of Directors in Region 1 and Region 3, occurs in May of each odd-numbered year. Election of Directors in Region 2 and Region occurs in May of each even-numbered year.

Ballots for Board of Director / Executive Officer positions are mailed to all eligible members at the beginning of each May.

Those nominees elected to the office will assume the duties and responsibilities of their office at 12:01 AM on June 1.

If you have other questions about the election process, are interested in serving your profession as a member of the NYSCA Board of Directors, or wish to nominate someone with leadership abilities, please contact the NYSCA president at [email protected].
