ASIA's overarching mission is to drive collective progress within Atlantica, ensuring that the distinct needs of each county are met through a multifaceted approach. From cultural exchange initiatives to the implementation of innovative solutions, the Assembly actively engages in activities that contribute to the holistic development of the region.

ASIA takes a proactive stance in cross-border collaboration by engaging in regular meetings with the Secretary-General of the Terranova House of Citizens Legislative Assembly's Intercounty Committee. These sessions focus on addressing cross-border issues and fostering cooperation between the two regions. ASIA's commitment to regional cooperation extends beyond administrative boundaries.

A hallmark of ASIA's approach is its commitment to inclusivity and community involvement. The Assembly actively seeks input from local residents and organizations, ensuring that the voices of the people are heard and their concerns are considered in the decision-making process. This emphasis on grassroots participation reflects ASIA's dedication to democratic principles.

At the helm of ASIA's operations is the Director-General, a figure of paramount importance responsible for overseeing day-to-day operations, setting strategic direction, and advocating for unified policies. The Director-General collaborates with county representatives from different states in the Terranovan House of Citizens Legislative Assembly's Intercounty Committee to address regional issues comprehensively.

Since September 19, 2026, Virginia S. Potts has served as the Director-General of ASIA. Her extensive experience in public administration and commitment to fostering collaboration has resulted in tangible improvements for Atlantica.

Within Atlantica State Intercounty Assembly, there are ten counties: Atlantica County, Founders' County, Stanley County, Blackwood County, Waltonfield County, Bannley County, Stonebridge County, Hamton County, Autumn Ridge County, and Federikson County, each being run by a Chief Executive Director.
