USA Operations Consolidated to Chicago/ Phoenix Office Closes

ICA-USA administration has been reorganized to the Chicago office. The consolidation will enhance coordination of programs and services and help lower costs.

The Board regrets that this required the closing of the Phoenix Office on March 30, 2007. We're sorry to loose the talents of dedicated staff members Jane Warren, Jan McConahay, Joan Knutson, Bonnie Lucas, and Maria Munoz. Marilyn and John Oyler and Jim Weigel, other valued staff, have already transitioned to independent ToP course registrars, master facilitators and consultants.

Although no longer full time staff, they will always be valuable friends. Many staff affected by this and the earlier layoff continue to be involved in the ICA as independent program contractors.

Over the last twelve months ICA-USA has experienced a tremendous amount of change. Change was necessary, but it was difficult. The staff has functioned with grace and commitment, for which we are deeply appreciative. Their professionalism and expertise have benefited the many people and organizations that ICA-USA serves.

As part of the Living Legacy, we are gathering stories and thoughts about the Phoenix Office and its legacy, along with reflections from colleagues around the world to acknowledge and celebrate former staffs' unique contributions.

As we seek to discern the future of ICA USA, the Board is mindful of the amazing and powerful accomplishments all staff have made possible.

We are thankful for their service.
-- ICA-USA
