The policies and activities of Open Modeling Foundation are administered by shared, multi-level governance that includes an **Executive Director** (ED), an **Executive Committee** (EC), a **Members Council** (MC), and several **Working Groups**. The Members Council is the primary OMF governing body, responsible for approving policies, procedures, and standards. The Executive Committee manages and administers OMF activities, following policies, procedures, and standards approved by the Members Council. The Director and Executive committee are assisted by a Project Coordinator and a Cyberinfrastructure Support team. The working groups will organize key activity sets of the OMF. Additionally, next-generation scientists can participate in the activities of the OMF through an **Affiliated Student Association**. Organizations that do not wish to become full members, and individuals who do not wish to join a working group can still be associated with the OMF to a more limited extent as OMF **Affiliates**. This organization is represented schematically in the [attached diagram](https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=https://github.com/openmodelingfoundation/openmodelingfoundation.github.io/files/6462528/OMF_org.pdf).
