How does the Communist Party work?
Members of the Communist Party belong to clubs in their communities or workplaces. Some clubs are citywide or regional. In the club, members work together to support and initiate struggles for workers rights, peace, equality and justice. We give special emphasis to coalition building and working to strengthen our unions. Most clubs meet monthly. Meetings include study and discussion of both current developments and long term strategy and tactics. Some members participate in discussions and activities through on-line clubs. In states where there are clusters of clubs they work cooperatively as a district. Every four years, the party holds a national convention. Delegates elected from the clubs assess the current political situation, set policy and elect a national committee. The Young Communist League, an independent organization, works alongside the Party at the local and national level. The national headquarters of the party is located in New York City.
