COMMUNITY

A key part of the work of the Islamic Center of North Marin is the nuturing and engaging of our community.  This page provides resources for ICNM community members to get involved in our masjid.

Board Nominations

The Islamic Center of North Marin (ICNM) is governed by a Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors oversee the overall programs and operations of the masjid in accordance with the organization’s by-laws and religious non-profit 501(c)(3) designation.

ICNM Board of Directors (BOD) members are selected and appointed through a shura process that includes nominations from the community and approval by the existing BOD membership.
