Welcome to ICF Metro DC!

ICF Metro DC is a charter chapter of the International Coaching Federation, and one of the largest chapters worldwide. With a membership of about 1,600 coaches, aspiring coaches, and coaching-adjacent professionals who reside in Washington D.C., Northern Virginia, suburban Maryland, and beyond, ICF Metro DC offers something for everyone. We also warmly welcome guests from other chapters to participate in our events!

We aim to be a catalyst for growth for coaches through networking, volunteer opportunities, continuing education and development, and forums to develop and promote best practices in coaching.

We advocate the benefits of coaching, foster ICF credentialing among coaches, and promote the profession of coaching. We're glad you're here!

Pro Bono Coaching with ICF Metro DC

ICF Metro DC's Pro Bono Coaching program is one of the initiatives of which we're most proud. Our Pro Bono Committee organizes collaborations with local non-profits that would benefit from, but not otherwise be able to afford, professional coaching. In the video at left, Suzan Jenkins of the Arts and Humanities Council of Montgomery County, shares her reflections on the benefits of coaching.

Visit our Pro Bono Opportunities page to get involved as a pro bono coach, or navigate to our our Pro Bono Committee page to volunteer as a committee member.
