Teams

Teams turn a crowd of volunteers into working units: a canvassing crew, a phone-bank team, an events committee. Each team page carries its own tabs for activity, volunteers, lists, and tasks, so the team’s whole world lives in one place.

The Teams page shows each team as a card with its volunteer count and its lead: the person who fields shift questions and escalations. A team with no lead shows a No lead warning (“Shift questions and escalations have nowhere to go. Pick a lead.”); open the team and set a lead to clear it.

Set up a team

1. 1Open TeamsEvery team shows as a card with its lead and volunteer count.
2. 2Click New teamName the team and describe its purpose.
3. 3Add volunteersSearch the volunteer picker and tick everyone on the crew. Each pick becomes a chip you can remove, and the team captain is badged in the list. If you name a captain who is not on the roster, the form offers to add them.
4. 4Give it workPick the target lists this team will contact the same way, then attach tasks to complete. The team page tracks both.
