Behind the Scenes
Inner Journey Canada is managed by eight committees in which volunteers serve the community. The Coordinators of the committees, who are elected at IJ’s Annual General Meeting, form the Coordinating Circle. The Circle supports Inner Journey Canada through business and operational leadership, and through liaison with the Facilitator Group.
The Coordinating Circle welcomes your comments and suggestions on any aspect of Inner Journey activities. You are also welcome to submit an agenda item or attend one of the monthly meetings of the Circle.
Volunteering to support one of the committees is a way you can enrich your personal IJ experience, reconnect with like-minded friends and, through service, give back to the IJ community. If you are an IJ graduate and would like to volunteer to support one of the committee activities or attend one of the monthly meetings of the Circle, please contact the Chair.
The following are the members of the Coordinating Circle for 2016/17, their roles, and some of their support volunteers.
