What are Action Teams?

Unlike local chapters, Action Teams are organized around specific topics or areas of focus, each working to create the political will for a livable world. Most teams meet monthly online and communicate here in their own group pages on CCL Community.

Can I join an Action Team?

CCL volunteers can join almost all of the Action Teams listed here in the Directory. Just click the name of any team you're interested in exploring and if it's marked as "Public" you are able to then click the "Join" button.
