Nova Scotia Secondary School Students' Association

While many positions across the organization are filled by appointment, certain key roles are elected at the [[Annual general meeting|Annual General Meeting]], held during the provincial conference. Elected positions include the President, Vice Presidents, and Regional Co-Premiers (the leaders of each Regional Cabinet). Following the election, the Presidential Trio selects the Provincial Conference Co-Chairs for the following year through an application process. These Co-Chairs are then responsible for appointing members to the Conference Committee. Similarly, Regional Co-Premiers fill their respective cabinets through applications submitted by interested students.

All committee positions within the NSSSA are held on a one-year [[Term of office|term]] basis. While members often reapply, this structure leads to a relatively high rate of turnover. To maintain continuity, Lorne "Abe" Abramson, the long-serving Provincial Advisor, played a significant role in ensuring organizational consistency. Following his death in 2024, Caelin Lloyd, the Program Lead for Accessibility, has taken an active role in archiving and organizing past NSSSA materials and records.

There are six regions within the NSSSA, [[Strait Regional Centre for Education|Strait]], [[Cape Breton – Victoria Regional Centre for Education|Cape Breton-Victoria]], [[Chignecto-Central Regional Centre for Education|Chignecto]], [[Halifax Regional Centre for Education|Metro]], and [[South Shore Regional Centre for Education|Sou’West]] [[Annapolis Valley Regional Centre for Education|Valley]]. They correspond roughly with different school boards within Nova Scotia. Each region has its own Regional Cabinet, run by two Co-Premiers. The Regional Cabinets host regional conferences, predominantly for their member schools, but open to all. These conferences are on a significantly smaller scale than the Provincial Conference.
