By Dr. Mohammed Kaiseruddin, CIOGC Chairman
In addition to the items listed above, CIOGC was directly involved in two programs: Prevention of sexual abuse panel and a meeting of the Regional Councils in the US. The Sexual Abuse panel was well attended. CIOGC helped organize a meeting of the Regional Islamic Councils in the US. The meeting was attended by officials of five Councils plus one who left a handout but could not attend because of some flight problems. Every Council presented the profiles of their organization and major activities. There was a unanimous desire to keep in touch by quarterly conference calls and meeting at ISNA conventions. Other suggestions were made for establishing a website and e-newsletter summarizing each Council’s activities. CIOGC was appreciated for organizing the meeting and was requested to continue initial coordination activities with help from Southern California and Michigan Councils.
