OUR TEAMS
The Sunrise NYC Hub has an organizational model that relies on the participation of our members to succeed. Whether it’s five minutes a week or more than 40 hours, you’re equally a member and we depend on you. We also practice mentorship by shepherding members into leadership roles and providing them with skills and tools to become effective organizers.
When everybody actively plugs in and gives what they can, our movement thrives and we are able to grow our numbers, power, and influence.
