The Party of Slovenian People (Stranka slovenskega naroda, SSN) is an extra-parliamentary party in Slovenia, established in the spring of 1945 as a democratic opposition to the Communist Party preparing for the first postwar national election in 1946. In the 2008 legislative election in Slovenia, the party won 0.25% of the popular vote and no seats in the National Assembly. In the early election on 4 December 2011, the party won 0.09% of the vote, thus not gaining any seats in the National Assembly.

The party has its roots in the far-right Slovenian National Right party, which was transformed and renamed after its failure in the 1996 parliamentary election. In later years, it was associated with the nationalistic organization Hervardi and the ultras group Viole Maribor. Andrej Šiško, formerly a prominent Viole Maribor member and the party's candidate for the 2008 legislative election, was convicted of a murder attempt.
