When you become a Member, you open the door to a place to gather and meet. But belonging begins when we move from knowing of one another, to actually knowing one another.
Join the final BEACON meeting of 2026, for an interactive introduction to ICF Sacramento’s newly launched Buddy Program.
Enjoy a simple, informal way to connect with fellow Members, exchange experiences, and build relationships beyond the people you already know.
Together with ICF Sacramento Board Members, Lois Payne and Julie Martin, we’ll explore how to move from just being a Member, to belonging through connection.
In a live demo, you’ll:
- Learn how to sign up to be a Buddy and search the Member Directory for your new Buddy
- Leave with one simple way to build connection across differences
Belonging doesn’t happen by membership alone. It grows through intentional connection.
This session supports BEACON, our chapter’s DEIB initiative, Belonging, Equity, Access Coaching Opportunity Network, and our continued commitment to embedding DEIB into how we lead and serve across every program, partnership, and member experience.
ICF Sacramento is committed to BEACON meetings being accessible to everyone — cost should never be a barrier to joining us. You can use code BEACON1226 at checkout to register at no charge. We’d love to have you join us.
