Collective, Circles, & Teams

Communities of Color United

Teams: Carry out the work of a specific initiative

Circles: Coordinate initiatives surrounding a common purpose for the organization

Collective: Coordinate activities of the organization, hold the big picture of how all activities work towards a common goal

Core Collective

Comprised of organizations and individuals that have been collaborating, open to new members with agreement to doing strategic work.

(from CCU membership structure)

The three circles come together at Core Collective monthly meetings.

Core Collective

Three Circles will coordinate the work of CCU

Circles

  • Administrative
  • Base Building (or other name?)
  • Movement Building

Circles meet as they decide fit to keep their areas progressing/functioning.

All circles should have 1-2 core collective members, minimum.

Circle meetings are times to offer peer support, check in on work plans of teams, make decisions pertaining to all teams within the circle.

Each Circle has teams to carry out its initiatives

Teams

Examples of teams:

  • Admin Circle: Finances & Fundraising
  • Base Building: Mutual Aid
  • Movement Building: Collective Development

Teams meet as they decide fit to keep their areas progressing/functioning.

Teams can be made up of staff, core collective members, and volunteers.

Goals and workplans should be regularly revisited.
