To achieve those goals, the SAC has set up six working groups for its members:

  • Communications Work Group – to develop and share organizational communication materials
  • Learning Network Work Group – to create a Multi Stakeholder Learning Network
  • Collaborative Partnership Work Group – to create collaborative partnerships to address local and regional environmental, social, and economic challenges
  • Advancing Sustainability Performance Work Group – to advance sustainability performance by providing resources and tools to help all member organizations improve performance (Adopt Sustainability Performance Standard)
  • Recognizing and Sharing Outcomes Work Group – to encourage, recognize, and share successful results of our membership
  • Member Development Work Group – to promote participation in SAC

Participating members of the council will also set measurable goals and report upon them publicly. The concept behind the collaboration is that while each group may be facing different sets of challenges, the diverse members can generate solutions to those challenges facing each individual group.
