volunteer opportunities
We have so many opportunities for volunteers this year and we welcome interested members to join us. We are making our way through the list of interested volunteers and encourage any of you who may not have completed the volunteer interest form to take a few moments and do so. The benefits gained from volunteering touch so many. As a volunteer, you gain satisfaction and recognition for your service, you gain experience in working with other chapter members and you broaden your connections. With your help, programs and initiatives, like the ones listed below, can be realized and completed, which benefits the receivers, the chapter, our region and ICF as a whole. If you have completed the volunteer interest form and have not heard from us, yet, you will be hearing from Volunteer Services, later in April. You will learn more about Volunteer Services and the process that we are adopting, moving forward. It is our hope that this effectively serves you and the chapter.

Join us and help shape the future of our chapter! Working alongside your Director counterpart, you'll play a pivotal role in advancing our mission. This includes elevating awareness around the crucial role of diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice in coaching, empowering coaches to undergo transformative journeys for both personal and professional growth, and fostering a tight-knit community where chapter members can connect, thrive, and earn valuable Continuing Coach Education Units (CCEUs).
As the Co-Director of Programming, you'll spearhead engaging virtual venues like "By Coaches, For Coaches", Coaches Cafes and other educational initiatives and events, driving forward our commitment to excellence and ongoing learning and expansion of coaching practice. We're seeking individuals who thrive in dynamic environments, embrace ambiguity and proactively seize opportunities to make a difference.
You'll have partnership and autonomy with your fellow Co-Director to build and lead your own team of dedicated volunteers, amplifying the impact of our collective efforts. Join us in creating meaningful change and leaving a lasting legacy in our coach community.
We are seeking someone able to start training in this position immediately and will accept rolling applications until the position is filled.
