#### Core Team Roles Available
11 Dec. 2016 - http://opendatasav.github.io - Drafted by CVL
--
*The following leadership roles are based off Code for America’s Brigade Leadership suggested guidelines. While we are in no way bound to these roles, it is a solid starting point. We will open discussion on this at the first OpenDataSAV meetup.*
### BRIGADE LEADERS & CORE TEAM MEMBERS
The Brigade Captain is a volunteer who starts and/or leads a local Brigade community. They commit to developing a sustainable civic technology community in collaboration with local government and community partners, championing Brigade activities in their city, and building out a core leadership team.
Core Team Members are vital. They diversify and distribute responsibilities in order to be more sustainable and more effective as a unit. Core Team Members collaborate with the Captain(s) to lead specific areas of their local Brigade.
Here are some suggested core team roles:
#### Delivery Lead
The Delivery Lead is the point for projects in the Brigade. The Delivery Lead should have a working knowledge of all the projects being hacked on at a given time in the Brigade, understand the needs of those projects, and help members find projects and projects find members.

#### Storyteller
