Community Planning Process: The Winning Communities Steering Committee

Behind the success of every Winning Communities project is a dedicated steering committee. This team, made up of six to 12 volunteer citizens and leaders within the community, forms at the onset of the project. Through cooperation with Winning Communities, the steering committee helps direct and coordinate the entire vision and action planning process.

The responsibilities of the steering committee include:

  • Representing the community in public statements and to the media
  • Providing leadership in a fair and non-partisan way
  • Attending and participating in regular steering committee and community-wide meetings
  • Communicating and soliciting the community's interest and participation in the planning process
  • Helping to develop the community's vision, mission and goals
  • Nominating and coordinating community action teams
  • Encouraging consensus and a commitment to action within the community

Only with strong leadership behind the community can the success of the Winning Communities process and the future success of the community become realities.
