The We Can Coalition of BC consists from the representatives of member organizations and from committed Change Makers. Committees are formed at the beginning of each fiscal year and open to join throughout the year. Each committee elects a chair or co-chairs to lead its work for the year. Coalition meets every second month, while working committees meet as needed.
