TANC Internal Structure
Meetings
Meetings are used to make decisions, discuss ongoing issues, and to draw new members into the organization. All meetings are posted at https://baytanc.com/calendar/.
- General Assembly: Every last Sunday, at Omni Commons in Oakland. Assembly is open to all, and is used for making TANC-wide decisions and organizing plans.
- Monday Working Meeting: Every Monday preceding the last Sunday of each month. Closed for TANC members—used for making strategic and organizational decisions.
- Local Meetings: Neighborhood Locals should have their own meetings. Check the TANC website calendar for meeting details. Local meetings are used to make organizing decisions locally—for example outreach events, or building organizing assistance. As of 2019, locals are currently being constructed, so most activity is centered around building capacity.
Committees
Committees serve the purpose of doing ongoing work that ensures that TANC continues to grow, interact with the three layers: TANC organizers, TANC adjacent tenants, and the unorganized.
- On-boarding Committee:
- Outreach Committee:
Working Groups
Working groups are oriented around specific projects.
- Houseless Working Group: The houseless organizing committee has been operative since mid-2018. See website calendar for meetings.
- Public Housing Working Group: Public housing committee is currently on pause. Public housing committee began organizing at the Campbell Village in West Oakland in 2019. However, limited capacity has brought this organizing to a hault.

Forming a Local Chapter
Joining TANC
Anyone who is a tenant—a person who is not in control of their own housing situation—can participate in TANC and help build the organization. However, getting more deeply involved and becoming a TANC organizer requires a few steps. This process is a new one, developed by the Onboarding Working Group. The purpose of doing this is to provide a more easy integration into TANC, and to communicate an understanding of TANC's short, medium and long term strategy.
- Step 1: Attend a TANC meeting or event.
- Step 2: Fill out the join form at join.baytanc.com.
- Step 3: An onboarding person will reach out to you. They will schedule a short meeting to get you acquainted.
- Step 4: You'll be asked to do a TANC inquiry with people with whom you are aquatinted. This can be your housemates, a neighbor or coworkers.
- Step 5: You will work with the onboarding person to chose a working group, local chapter or committee to work on.
- Step 6: Congrats, you are now a TANC core organizer!
