Bev Lutz ICF membership provides incredible professional networking opportunities, professional and personal growth, and opportunities to explore my strengths as I volunteer in service of my profession.  My chapter really helps me stay current with coaching, thought leadership, and learn-n-earn (CEU’s) from professional development events.  But it’s the supportive coach-friends and collaborators who have made membership for me priceless. //s3.amazonaws.com/ClubExpressClubFiles/907122/graphics/BevLutz1_669008720.jpg

Irene Kelly

Being a member of ICF offers me the opportunity for certification by the industry professional standard bearer; being a member of ICF Minnesota connects me to my professional peers for networking and collaboration.  Membership in both establishes me as “credible” and provides me opportunities to learn and grow.

The conference featured three keynote speakers: Dr. Melissa Peet, LaTonya Wilkins and Dr. Damian Goldvarg. Read more...
Fall 2022 Diversity & Inclusion
Book Club
All are welcome to our Book Club. We will meet virtually from October through June on the third Tuesday of each month,
from 6 PM - 7:30 PM CST. 
We will start by reading David Treuer's Rez Life: An Indian's Journey Through Reservation Life. This book is a complex and subtle examination of Native American reservation life, past and present.
 "Smartly, this book blends journalism, history and memoir...to provided both anecdotes of present-day reservation life and history...Treuer's message - the picture he gives of Indian reservation life today - is not one of defeat or demise but of miraculous survival." -Greg Sarris, San Francisco Chronicle

The facilitation will be done by a different participant from the group each month.
