General Assembly (GA)

Our General Assembly (GA) takes place at Austin City Hall at 3pm on Saturdays and 7pm on Mondays. At the GA anyone can come and participate, sharing making announcements, proposals or working group report backs.

Guide to the General Assembly - A printable trifold brochure of the facilitation roles and responsibilities, our hand signals, a typical agenda for a GA, and the proposal discussion and consensus process we generally use.

Working Groups

Our Working Groups form around projects and ideas such as education, bank divestment, ending corporate personhood or ending homelessness. For a full listing of the groups that are currently active check out our Working Groups Page. If you feel that there is a group that should be added but isn’t there already you can form a new group.
