The SCGIS Board of Directors is the governing body of the Society for Conservation GIS. They are responsible for steering SCGIS activities and have all final decision making authority. Members of the SCGIS board serve three-year terms and are elected by SCGIS membership. The president, vice president, and secretary are able to serve in their officer positions for up to three years and the treasurer can serve for up to four years. Each officer position is renewed on a yearly basis. The SCGIS board would be happy to hear from you! We can be reached at board(at)scgis.org.

The SCGIS Advisory Council supports the Board of Directors and SCGIS committees in their duties and decision-making. They are encouraged to serve as mentors to new officers. Members of the Advisory Council are former board members and officers, co-founders, or have otherwise made significant contributions to the development of SCGIS and its programs.
