Join the Charlotte Metro DSA in our monthly business meeting where we democratically shape the direction of our chapter. We highly recommend if you are a new DSA member or interested in becoming a member to come to one of our socials or actions before coming to our general meeting. These events offer more space to meet comrades and learn about the organization. Our general meetings presume you have some understanding of current chapter work and are familiar with Robert's rules, a procedure we use for organizing the meeting, debating and voting on proposals. We've linked below some resources to learn more about these.

Doors Open at 12:15pm

Zoom opens at 12:40pm

Roberts rules refresher at 12:45pm

Meeting starts at 1:00 pm

A reminder of our community rules for those who do attend:

• Recognize and respect each other as such

• Assume good faith in each other

• Follow the norms of progressive stack

• Stay muted while others are speaking

• Consider whether to “step up” or “step back”

• Have a sense of humor (and some fun if you can help it)

If you have a proposal you would like to submit, please refer to the form here.

Here are additional resources we recommend you look over prior to your first meeting or if you need a refresher:

• ROBERT’S RULES OF ORDER – QUICK REFERENCE
  
• DSA Pre convention Conference Robert’s Rules of Order Training - Roles Handout
• National DSA Meeting Code of Conduct
• Charlotte Metro DSA Code of Conduct

We look forward to seeing you!
