ICD® Research Advisory Council (RAC)

Members of the ICD’s Research Advisory Council (RAC) are invaluable allies of the Institute for Chronic Disorganization (ICD). They generously volunteer their time because they believe in the mission and vision of ICD. Their support benefits the organization in three key ways:

  1. Ambassadorship: They connect ICD with scholars and practitioners across various fields that intersect with the study of chronic disorganization.
  2. Field Expertise: They keep ICD informed about developments in their fields that directly impact individuals affected by chronic disorganization.
  3. Research Opportunities: They assist ICD in identifying new research opportunities and conducting case studies that address pressing questions relevant to our subscribers and their work with individuals facing chronic disorganization and related conditions.

The RAC plays a crucial role in helping ICD remain relevant, compassionate, and informed. Their expertise helps ICD identify new techniques and best practices, as well as deepens our understanding of chronic disorganization and related co-morbid conditions.

ICD is pleased and honored to receive support from these distinguished experts.

The following professionals and scholars generously serve on ICD’s RAC.
