Organization
Membership in the Covenant is open to covens and solitary practitioners (solitaires) that meet the requirements. Requirements include: subscribing to the Covenant’s code of ethics, worship of the Goddess and the Old Gods, pledging to abide by the charter, bylaws and policy of the Council, and agreeing to “hold harmless” any committee or committee member of the Covenant. The Covenant is a confederation of member covens and solitaires. An annual Grand Council is held to make decisions for the whole organization, and members also cooperate in local councils which have at least three covens. Decisions at all levels are made by a formal consensus process.
