The Steering Team is a temporary, transitional team that will cease to exist after the formal election of ONE Wake's Strategy Team in the fall of 2021. The Strategy Team will continue the work of the Steering Team. The timeline for the formation of the Strategy Team in 2021 is listed below: 

• February 25: First call for nominations made
• July 13: Deadline to receive nominations (review nominations here)
• September 14: Nominations Committee reviews nominations
• December 2: ONE Wake Countywide Leaders Caucus votes whether or not to ratify the slate

Update: all nominations for Strategy Team have been reviewed and approved by the Nominating Committee.

The Strategy Team will serve as ONE Wake corporate board, and will develop the strategic organizing goals and plans, oversee fiscal responsibility, and evaluate personnel. The Strategy Team will formulate and recommend an annual budget to the Countywide Leaders Caucus, oversee the annual audit, review quarterly financial statements, and evaluate the work of the Lead Organizer.
