The Green Party of Philadelphia is both a political party and a grassroots political activist organization. All are welcome to join. We are an association of citizens who strive to make our city a more just and sustainable community. We work through education, direct action, and inclusive electoral politics.
The Green Party is an officially recognized political party in Pennsylvania and is one of the only parties that is actually growing. As with Greens
throughout the United States and the world, we are guided by the Four Pillars and Ten Key Values.
Our structure is detailed in our bylaws and is
grounded on democratic principles. We strive to make decisions by consensus
or by carefully delegated authority. The highest body in the organization is
the General Membership. Most of the day-to-day work is performed by the Working Groups, volunteers, and the
City Committee. We have recently compiled a list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about GPOP and the Green Party in general.
General Membership
All registered Green voters in Philadelphia are automatically members of the
Green Party of Philadelphia, but we encourage you to fill out the membership
form. At the very least, join one of our e-mail lists. If you have questions
concerning membership, send an email to gpop@gpop.org or call 215-243-7103
and ask for the GPOP Chair or the Membership Secretary.
Working Groups
You do not have to be a member of the Green Party in order to participate in
a working group! Our working groups carry out
the bulk of our activist and political work.
City Committee
The City Committee is responsible for
general administration of the organization and implementation of the
decisions of the membership as a whole, particularly between monthly General Membership meetings.
