LIP Council
Working Group Action Team Action Team Action Team
Steering Committee
LIPs are steered by a broad-based coordinating
Council tasked with overall strategic planning, stewardship and management control over initiatives such as needs assessments and asset mapping of their community. Some LIPs have created Steering Committees to support them in this work. Working Groups focus on particular sectors of interest or need in the community. Common themes include employment, language training, social inclusion, settlement, health or youth. Action Teams work on specific projects emerging from a Working Group. These teams are most relevant at the implementation phase.
