Introduction

The Greater Washington D.C. Chapter of the Internet Society is the official title of Internet Society's US Washington DC Chapter, usually abbreviated to ISOC-DC.

ISOC-DC is a membership organization, incorporated as a 501(c)3 non-profit, that seeks to further the mission of the Internet Society (ISOC) in the District-Maryland-Northern Virginia metropolitan area by serving as a hub for discussion, education, and action.
