When several Re-evaluation Counselors happen to be present at a wide-world conference or other non-Re-evaluation Counseling event, they may find it very useful to counsel with each other, organize a support group, or briefly exchange their opinion of issues with each other.


They should not, however, “huddle.” What time they spend together should be formally used for a session or a group session. They should reach out to and spend time with and establish communication with the non-RCers at the conference or event.


It is not correct for Re-evaluation Counselors in this position to attempt to dominate the policy of the broader event by, for example, “putting over” [pushing through] policies or decisions, on the basis of parliamentary maneuvering, which the majority of the people attending are not yet in agreement with. This “faction” type of organization (often used by leftists in the past) is an expression of despair and of lack of confidence in the majority of the people. 


It is completely possible for Re-evaluation Counselors to be on opposite sides of certain questions in the wide-world organization as policies are being worked out, and it’s crucial that they treat each other with respect and treat the non-Re-evaluation Counselors around them with complete respect also. 


Co-Counseling, encouraging each other, helping each other prepare to publicly communicate well, yes. Parliamentary maneuvering on a narrow basis as a group, no.
