In this research, I explain why Communities of Purpose are organized complex systems, and consequently why their success or failure cannot be explained solely by traditional statistics. First, I describe common characteristics and patterns among various Communities of Purpose. Next, I present an understanding of the structure and behavior of individuals that make up Communities of Purpose. Using Network Science, I then examine the relationships between and among the individuals who collectively form a network of action around a specific community that increases awareness about homelessness and poverty-related issues. Using the lens of organized complexity, I present complex characteristics of how this specific communities' success is impacted by structure and illuminate problem areas within the network. In response, I suggest a technological framework and corresponding online social connectedness tool, which can assist Communities of Purpose in being more successful at reaching their intended outcomes.
