Sunrise Asheville is actively working on creating a distributed leadership model that relies on the participation of our members (whether you can give 5 mins a week or 40 hours) to succeed. When everybody actively plugs in and gives what they can, our movement thrives! We are able to grow our numbers, power and influence, sustain our community, and pass policies and elect leaders who stand up for climate justice and the health and wellbeing of all people.
Teams will meet at least once a month in between monthly hub meetings to discuss roles and action steps. We'll reach out with you once you've expressed interest to plug you in to the team.
Our committees are organized with the following roles.
TEAM LEADS - Are responsible for coordinating the activities of a team, ensuring team goals are set and met, and supporting team members to participate. This role usually requires a high level of capacity and commitment. If you are interested in leading (or help lead) one of Sunrise Asheville's Committees, email the Hub Coordinator to discuss (sunrisemovementavl@gmail.com). *To uphold Sunrise Movement principles, team leads must be under the age of 35.*
TEAM MEMBERS - Are focused on implementing the activities of a team, with a primary role of showing up and giving what you can to help your team succeed. This role usually requires less time and responsibility.
Specific roles to be filled on each team are described here. If there is a particular role that appeals to you, please make a note of it at the end of this form!
