The Getting to Zero Consortium work is done in committees, which are led by co-chairs and a liaison from the Steering Committee.

Each committee is charged with defining measurable objectives and a program implementation plan. Under the direction of a Steering Committee and with broad partnerships with community organizations and the private sector, the Consortium uses an active process, engaged through committee work and program implementation to achieve the Getting to Zero goals.
