IMCC's Board of Directors comprises a mix of longtime sangha members and members who have joined our community within the last few years. The board fills vacancies by identifying sangha members who have participated actively in the community as volunteers or teachers and have special skills that will enhance the Board's mission to determine policies, procedures and regulations, provide fiscal oversight, assist in raising funds to finance the organization when needed, provide leadership and assume leadership roles, and monitor organizational performance. All members are eligible for a position on the board. If you would like to be considered, contact the Operations Director.
The Board meets every other month and holds an all-day retreat once per year to attend to business and consider larger issues of policies, programs, and long-term growth strategy. Our board meetings are open for the sangha to attend. By law, the board must have a quorum to approve proposed policies or decisions.
If you would like to contact one of the Board Members by email, or if you are interested in attending a board meeting, use the Contact Us Form. If you wish to direct your question to a specific Board Member, indicate the name in the subject line and we will forward your message to them.
