Organizing Committees

Organizing Committees (“OCs”) are forming networks of individual Symbiosis members in particular cities or regions. Some OCs are made up of individuals looking to start an organization in their area, others are made up of members actively engaged in member or partner organizations in that area, and some are a mix of both.

Our goal is not only to confederate existing organizations, but to help seed new ones. The OCs listed are those that have sprung up from our membership so far; there may well be organizers in your area that have not started an OC yet. All members are welcome to join or start an OC, and the Organizing Support Working Group can help you set up!
