The IC2 seeks to maintain an open dialogue with all interested parties that help advance the mission of the IC2. Supporting Members demonstrate support for the IC2’s mission and a willingness to interact constructively with governmental agencies, NGOs, businesses, researchers, and labor representatives. Supporting members promote within their organization or the community/ies they serve the following goals:
- Reduction of the use of toxic chemicals or the generation and release of toxic pollutants
- Environmental sustainability
- Environmental and health equity
IC2 Supporting Members may include non-governmental organizations (NGOs), businesses, labor organizations, academic programs, and unaffiliated individuals. Supporting Members are eligible to participate in the IC2 All Member Meetings and in IC2 Workgroups.
- Supporting Member organizations are asked to submit a membership application and Supporting Member MoA to the Board of Directors for approval based on the criteria listed above. All Supporting Member applicants must identify potential financial conflicts of interest and sign a conflict of interest statement as a condition of membership.
- The IC2 Board of Directors will review the application for completeness and respond to the applicant. Should a Supporting Member organization fail to satisfy the criteria outlined, the IC2 Board of Directors may terminate that organization’s membership. Such removal requires a majority vote by the Board. The IC2 does not refund prorated membership dues in such cases.
- Payment of IC2 dues is not required as part of the application process. The IC2 annually invoices its Supporting Members based on the dues structure outlined below.
