The SCM has been a student-led organization since its foundation. Over the years, students have participated in work camps, protested the Japanese internment during World War II, raised their voices against war in the 60s, and have challenged the churches to stop homophobia in the 90s.

SCM is a national organization but the life and direction of the national organization comes from the local units, found on university campuses throughout Canada. These local units are autonomous; members determine the shape and direction of their unit, including which issues the unit will focus on.

Senior Friends (SCM alumni) contribute to the ongoing life of the SCM (nationally and with local units) in a variety of ways. Senior Friends offer support, advice, and financial contributions to keep the SCM flourishing.

Today, the SCM continues to be a place where students can connect justice and faith/spirituality. SCM challenges all forms of oppression, seeks to mobilize students to take action against globalization of capitalism, and continues to make connections between social issues and spirituality.
