CIMC endeavors to provide an inclusive environment for all members of our community to practice and participate according to their individual needs. Genuine inclusivity requires that we work together to understand and free ourselves from emotional, psychological and societal conditions that cause suffering and separate us from each other. At the same time, social injustice is a part of everyday life for many people and we recognize that practicing in the company of others with shared life experiences may be profoundly supportive. CIMC’s Affinity Groups offer this opportunity.
