coordinating COMMITTEE

Boston DSA is headed by a Coordinating Committee, composed of the two Co-Chairs, who are the leadership and public face of the local, the Treasurer, the Communications Coordinator, two Membership Coordinators, the Clerk, and four at-large elected committee members. The Coordinating Committee coordinates and oversees the work of the variety of Working Groups and Committees, which are the focuses of DSA Boston’s organizing efforts, and has responsibility for holding General Meetings.

The Coordinating Committee meets twice a month, and its meetings are public and open to all Boston DSA members. The Coordinating Committee can be reached at leadership@bostondsa.org.
