Most procedures tend toward legalistic, eye-crossing language; we have tried to keep ours simple and constructive.  Everyone named in this procedure has shown long-term commitment to fair and reasonable outcomes within relationships.

Our procedure for considering and resolving complaints with us in Sati Sangha:

Email or call to set up a time to speak with Linda Modaro, as Director and Teacher at Sati Sangha.

or

If you are not comfortable meeting with Linda on your own, you can bring another person along with you.  Maybe someone who understands the issue, someone you trust, who may have a similar concern, or is a neutral party.

or

If you are not comfortable bringing the issue to Linda Modaro, you can contact another teacher: Nelly Kaufer, of Pine Street Sangha, or Janet Keyes who is an Reflective Meditation Teacher. You may also bring another person along with you to this meeting.

or

You can elect to contact Lisa Strom Sloan, an outside consultant, through email or an online meeting with your issue. She will notify Linda Modaro that a complaint has been received, and then set up a time to meet with you online or by phone for a 30 minute session. After hearing your complaint, she will work with you and Sati Sangha towards offering fair and compassionate guidance for the issue at hand. 

Hopefully, any one of these interactions will resolve the issue. If for some reason, it is not resolved, you can continue with the Council for Sati Sangha:

We ask that you put the issue in writing to the Council.  If you need help doing so, the person you initially contacted can help you with this. Please send it to anyone on the Sati Council.

The Council will set up a time to meet with you online, and then speak with any relevant parties, get advice from others and make a decision about the issue, if needed.

They will follow up with you, in writing, at the end of the process.
