A frequently asked question is 'how do I join Initiatives of Change?' The answer can sometimes seem confusing. Frank Buchman, who started it all, used to say 'it's not about getting people into a movement – its about getting movement into people.' The same holds true today. There are no membership forms or lists, no annual membership fees, just a network of people with a drive and commitment to bringing change – starting with themselves.

Who we are: Initiatives of Change (IofC) is a world-wide movement of people of diverse cultures and backgrounds, who are committed to the transformation of society through changes in human motives and behaviour, starting with their own.
