NeighborhoodS
Neighborhood Chapters meet regularly, do the work that matters most on their own blocks, knock doors in their own divisions, and send representation to the Citywide Committee governing the whole organization.
About neighborhood chapters
-
No. Chapter meetings are open. Come to as many as you want before you decide anything.
-
Neighbors meet and connect, the chapter catches up on what's happening in the neighborhood, at the citywide level, and in City Hall. Then people sign up for what's next.
-
That's how nearly everyone starts. Somebody will say hello at the door and somebody will explain any acronym you don't recognize. Tell us you're coming and we'll ask one person to look out for you. You don’t have to talk if you don’t want to.
-
Please let your chapter leader know ahead of time if you need special accommodations to give them a chance to try. Not every event is going to be able to accommodate every need, but we will always find a place for you in this movement.
-
No. We'd love you out there eventually. But every chapter includes people who've never knocked one — including those who work behind the scenes on data, communications, logistics, etc. If you’re new, just show up.
-
A chapter is where you live. A caucus is what you're fighting for. Many members do both, plenty do one.
-
Members argue in public, at meetings, on the record — that's how endorsements get decided. What holds us together is simpler: if you think this city should work for the people who live in it and not the corporations that profit off it, you belong.

In the short-term you can join the nearest chapter. Over the long-term we’d love your help to launch a new chapter in your neighborhood, just let us know.
