Students for Sensible Drug Policy is governed by a Board of Directors, which is comprised of both current student and youth Elected Directors, who are active chapter members elected by our membership, and Appointed Directors, who are appointed by the existing Board.

Together, they are responsible for crafting strategy for the organization, managing compliance and financial affairs, and overseeing SSDP’s Executive Director.

By Us, For Us: Professionalizing the Future of SSDP

At the heart of SSDP is a simple truth: we are a global network of peers—including people who use drugs and harm reductionists—working directly for the safety of our own communities. We deliver life-saving services because we understand the risks and the solutions better than any external observer. 

This year, you will have two Resolutions—formal, non-binding strategic recommendations submitted by members to guide the work of SSDP’s Staff and the Board—on your Congress ballot.

Learn more about why SSDP Ambassador Jorge Valderrabano proposed them!
