Organizational chart: PLHIV community (including allies) -> Caucus Membership -> Caucus Steering Committee -> Caucus Leadership Team (Steering Committee officers, Emeritus Steering Committee members, committee chairs and ad hoc working group chairs) -> Caucus Executive Committee (officers).

Methods: Consensus decision-making is the preferred mode of decision-making. However, voting will be conducted when necessary. When voting is enacted, a majority of members present (or by proxy), as determined by quorum, is required for a decision or motion to stand.

Quorum: The minimum number of Steering Committee members constituting a quorum shall be at least 50% of the Steering Committee membership eligible to vote plus one.

Leadership Team: The Leadership Team of the HIV Caucus shall consist of the Steering Committee officers, Emeritus Steering Committee members, committee chairs and ad hoc working group chairs. The Caucus Leadership Team will be responsible carrying out the actions taken by the Steering Committee and actively guiding the implementation of Caucus-related activities.

Fiduciary Responsibility: As the HIV Caucus is a network of Institutions and Independent Advocates, the Steering Committee may from time to time request or appoint one its ex-offico institutions to serve as its fiduciary sponsor or agent. This ex-Offico institution will work with the Caucus Treasurer to ensure appropriate financial documents (i.e. budgets and reports) are submitted to the Caucus’s Executive Committee for review who in turn will present these documents to the Steering Committee for review.
