Community Council

The Free Geek Community Council is the group responsible for the long term vision of Free Geek. It enacts policy that is:

• overarching, affecting all of Free Geeks, OR
• cross-group, not as big as overarching, but affects multiple groups (if those groups can't coordinate the policy on their own), OR
• controversial in nature.

Any volunteer or worker can be a member of the council. The council works by Consensus.
