On June 2, 2025, all voting members of IDSA and HIVMA will receive an electronic ballot via email for the IDSA and HIVMA Board elections.
Elections for the IDSA and HIVMA Boards of Directors will begin on June 2 using a process designed to ensure that the Society’s leadership represents the full diversity of its membership.
Our definition of diversity is broad and includes race, ethnicity, gender identity, age, geographic location, type of practice setting or activity, such as clinical vs. nonclinical, and other factors. Rooted in the Society’s principles of inclusion, diversity, access, and equity, the slate-based election will provide members the opportunity to vote yay or nay on a group of highly qualified and diverse candidates recruited and vetted by IDSA’s and HIVMA’s Leadership Development Committees.
During a call for officer and director applications, which ran from March 3, 2025 to March 27, 2025, we received a significant number of applications for IDSA and HIVMA officer positions by actively recruiting members and being transparent with the recruitment and review process. This process included the creation of a model representing the desired attributes of volunteers serving in various roles. The Leadership Development Committees were then charged with selecting the best candidates who could most effectively lead the Society and HIVMA.
On June 2, all voting members will receive, via email, an electronic ballot for both the IDSA and HIVMA elections with the subject line “2025 IDSA/HIVMA Elections.”
The IDSA section of the ballot includes one slate of candidates for five open positions — the vice president, the secretary, and three directors. The HIVMA section of the ballot includes one slate of candidates for six open positions — the vice chair, three directors, and one for the HIVMA representative to the IDSA board. Members are being asked to vote yes or no on each slate.
Biographical sketches and personal statements for the candidates are posted on this page and are also being provided via email.
Voting is open from June 2, 2025 through June 23, 2025 at 12:00 p.m. ET.
Thank you in advance for voting. Your participation is an important way to influence the future direction of IDSA and HIVMA.
