Project No Cap Community

Join Our Discord

Project No Cap is on Discord for team communication, volunteer coordination, and community engagement. Follow the instructions below to create your account, join the correct team, and introduce yourself.

Why are we using Discord?

Discord offers many of the same communication features as Slack without limiting our message history, meeting attendance, or meeting length. Its role-based access system also allows us to organize members by team, volunteer role, and location. Discord will serve both active volunteers and members of the broader community who want to learn more about uncapping the House.

Understand the Channels

Discord includes several channel types. Some channels are available to everyone, while others may be limited to certain teams or roles.

Text Channels

Use text channels for announcements, conversations, updates, links, files, and ongoing team communication.

Forum Channels

Forum channels organize separate posts by topic, making projects and longer conversations easier to find.

Voice Channels

Voice channels can be used for meetings, conversations, presentations, and collaborative work sessions.

Private Channels

Private channels are only visible to members who have the appropriate team or leadership role.

Threads

Threads are smaller conversations inside a text channel. They help keep detailed discussions from crowding the main channel.
