About the event
The FIC exists to support the movement and the FIC needs the movement to align our efforts. In this webinar we will lift the veil on some in-progress initiatives including major redesigns to our website and directory, launching a CommUniversity, and updates to our membership plans and benefits – that we think you’ll really like!
The FIC provides the resources people need to thrive in community and in collaborative ways. We make our offerings accessible for all to support them on their journey. Now we need your support. Help us reach our goal of $20K to ensure we can continue to provide all the tools you need to thrive in community.
