The North American Division (NAD) of Seventh-day Adventists is a sub-entity of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, which oversees the Church's work in the United States, Canada, French possessions of St. Pierre and Miquelon, the British overseas territory of Bermuda, the US territories in the Pacific of Guam, Wake Island, Northern Mariana Islands, and three states in free association with the United States - Palau, the Marshall Islands, and the Federated States of Micronesia. Founded in 1913, its headquarters in the same building as the General Conference, moved to separate quarters in Columbia, Maryland in 2017. As of June 30, 2021, the Division's membership was 1,267,711.
