COSI Core Committee

The COSI Core Committee is the backbone of COSI – the machinery which runs the community.

Core Committee members are responsible for setting and implementing annual goals for the community in keeping with the vision and mission of COSI.

​

Core Committee Membership Duties:

1. Decide goals for the year

2. Monitor progress towards these goals

3. Coordinate volunteer efforts

4. Serve as the ‘gatekeeper’ for new members, decide based on eligibility criteria whether to

allow them in the community or not

5. Create reports to share at the end of the year with the whole community

​
