Sister Cities International is governed by a 24-member Board of Directors.  Twenty-one members who represent the general voting members of SCI are elected by the membership at the Annual Business Meeting; One Director position is filled by the Chair of the Board; One Director position is filled by a qualified State Representative, nominated by the Chair and approved by the Board of Directors; and one Director position is filled by a Young Professional Representative, between the ages of 21 and 34, that is elected by the membership.

Board members serve three-year terms.  The Chair of the Board, Young Professional Representative and State Representative each serve two-year terms.
