The leadership of the Central MN Chapter of the Climate Project is elected annually from the current membership of the chapter. Leadership responsibilities are currently divided between two groups: Operations and Presentations and Outreach, with designated co-chairs leading the groups.

Co-chairs are chosen from the membership, and have completed the Climate Reality Leadership training. Co-chairs have additional responsibilities including communication with the main Climate Reality Project organization, chairing the official monthly chapter meetings, and developing the strategic plan for the coming year.
