LLCs set their own schedule internally. We ask groups to commit to meet every month for a minimum of fifteen months, with a two-month break built in. Beyond the initial commitment, we hope that you'll want to continue indefinitely. In general, meetings last 3 to 3.5 hours, including breaks.
Groups can choose to hold shorter meetings, but we ask that they consider the value in using the full time to make sure that every member gets a turn to share.
We also ask new members to attend a one-time training prior to that first meeting.
