WHAT IS AN IONS COMMUNITY GROUP?
IONS Community Groups are self-organizing, self-directing, voluntary associations of members and their friends. The philosophy that guides our support for groups is based upon our commitment both to encouraging diversity and to local control of local activities. We trust that our groups will operate with integrity and guide their gatherings with good intentions, and we here at “hubquarters? hope to foster an open and communicative relationship with them. While we support and assist groups in a variety of ways, each local community group operates independently of IONS and is legally and financially responsible for its own activities. Community groups are not “chapters” and we ask that they not refer to themselves as such.
