Local Coordinators
Local Coordinators are community volunteers who serve as the organizers for their Local Neighbor Net.
In most cases, they work as a team with one or more neighbors to share the responsibilities of this role. They may share responsibilities evenly as co-coordinators or implement a hierarchy of responsibilities with someone as the “lead” and others as supporters. Coordinators may also work solo. Ideally, co-coordinators bring complementary interests and skill sets to the role and work as a team to help connect their neighbors.
