Committees of Correspondence

The Committees of Correspondence were groups formed in the American colonies in the early 1770s to facilitate communication and coordination among colonists. Established to keep towns and colonies informed about British actions and colonial responses, these committees shared important news, organized resistance against British policies, and fostered unity among the colonies. They played a crucial role in the lead-up to the American Revolution by promoting collaboration and collective action, setting the stage for a more organized rebellion against British rule.
