Organizational Chart
This chart shows the organizational structure of the Knights of
Columbus. An overview of a few key points indicates the importance of
this structure.
The Supreme Council is responsible for the development of the
organization as a whole, establishing it in new regions and setting up
regional authorities, defining and advancing its values and goals,
undertaking organization-wide initiatives, promoting awareness of the
Knights' mission worldwide, and protecting the families of members
through its extensive insurance program. The majority of the Knights'
beneficial work, however, is carried on by members working in local, or
subordinate, councils.
Therefore, the organizational and financial structure of the Knights
of Columbus plays a vital role in the success of the Knights' mission.
