Listening Council Announcement
Sacramento Insight Meditation recently created a Listening Council to hear concerns from members of our sangha, recognizing that in any community difficulties, misunderstandings and conflict may sometimes arise. Items for the Listening Council might include, for example, conflicts or communication difficulties between sangha members; concerns about behavior by a sangha member that might prove harmful to others; or concerns about inappropriate behavior or ethical breaches by a Board or Faculty member.
Our aspiration is to support the resolution of such problems through effective, responsible means based on Buddhist principles of wisdom, compassion, and right action.
Members of our community seeking support in resolving their concerns should feel free to reach out to one of our Listening Council members:
- Jerry Simkins (jerrys@sactoinsight.org)
- Robin Primavera (robinp@sactoinsight.org)
- Tom Vigran (tom@sactoinsight.org)
- Barb Briscoe (barbb@sactoinsight.org)
Further details about procedures that will guide the work of the Listening Council are available on our Listening Council webpage (shown below).
