The above 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 oversees the growth and direction of the Knights of Columbus, guiding the organization as a whole. They expand the Knights into new regions, establish local leadership, and champion the values and goals that define the organization. The Supreme Council also leads large-scale initiatives, raises global awareness of the Knights’ mission, and provides members and their families with valuable support through a comprehensive insurance program.

That said, most of the Knights’ impactful work happens at the local level, carried out by members in their community-based councils. This makes the Knights’ organizational and financial structure essential to fulfilling their mission and ensuring their efforts make a meaningful difference.
