Special Interest Groups (SIGs) bring together members who share common interests, activities, or goals. SIGs can be as varied as our members. Any DC Chapter member can decide to start a SIG. Members decide how they should be run and provide leadership and organization. Any member in a SIG might, depending upon the theme, choose a book, pick the restaurant, lead a discussion, or arrange a day trip. Unlike one-time Events or Programs, SIGs have multiple meetings.
SIGs can be pretty much anything members want them to be—we’re flexible. A SIG can be a specific group of members who build connection by recurring meetings, or a loose organization with events open to all chapter members, or a contact network arranging ad hoc activities. SIGs can have ongoing meetings or they can be of limited duration for a specific topic. The DC Leadership Team provides support for anyone interested in getting a new SIG underway.
DC Chapter SIG meetings are currently open to all chapter members. They are posted in the events calendar and you can check them out and register there. Some online meetings are open to members nationwide. Some events are also open so potential members can try us out.
