Our Community

The Fetzer Institute board and staff are an inclusive, spiritually grounded community of love and hope.

The organizational culture is deliberately developmental, which means we intentionally foster the professional, physical, social, emotional, and spiritual development of our staff through scaffolding and support for deeper transformation. Our communal practices provide a “spiritual meeting ground” where all ways of seeking and knowing Sacred Mystery both belong and co-exist.

“Loving concern is the one ingredient that can make us successful. It’s the glue that binds us together. We must have dedicated people all over the world who are willing to search, to research, to contribute, and to become one through love. We simply must have love as an institution.” — John Fetzer

Sacred connection often begins with simple joy — a smile, a story, a moment of belonging.
