The Coordinating Group consists of the Core Group and either the chair or co-chair of each Working Group.  The Coordinating Group meets every other month, in the months between General Meetings.​

Communications                       Lisbie Rae   (New working group confirmed at General Meeting August 8, 2021)            

The first year in a Core Group the co-position role involves learning the requirements of the job and assisting with the job. The second year involves taking over the responsibilities of the job and training the new person for the position. One exception is the Treasurer position in which the Co-Treasurer holds the position for two years followed by two years as Treasurer.  The other exception is the Coordinator Role which goes on for a third year as Past Coordinator.  Elections are held yearly for new co-positions.

​
To contact a Coordinating Group member, email victoriagrandmothers4africa@gmail.com or call 778 977 7069

The position of Co-Coordinator remains vacant at this time. Coordinators meet every other month, in between the General Meetings; their job is to guide the group, make suggestions, and carry out decisions made by members. Positions are shared, so there's always someone else to turn to for advice or to take your place if you are away. Thank you to those members who stepped up to fill these positions!

                 STRUCTURE and POLICIES


​A new Communications Working Group was created to deal with the increasing complexity of communication within the group.  This was confirmed at the General Meeting on August 8, 2021, and will be added to the Structures and Policies document when it is next updated.
