Jeannine is co-founder of the World Dharma Online Institute (WDOI), where she currently teaches courses and holds retreats that explore dharma and consciousness as they relate to human freedom. The WDOI is a nonsectarian, multicultural, nonprofit foundation dedicated to the art and practice of finding liberation through living. The WDOI was conceived with Alan Clements in 2005 and encompasses a diverse community of free thinking seekers, artists, and activists: all people who are compelled to explore the integration of consciousness, conscience, and compassion with creativity, human rights, environmental sanity, and all forms of activism.

Purpose:The World Dharma Online Institute was conceived to offer experiential, creative, nonsectarian courses for the purpose of evolving a global culture of conscience for people dedicated to freedom, decency, and the emergence of a compassionate, peaceful world citizenship, rooted in dignity, universal human rights, and environmental sanity.
Mission:At the heart of the World Dharma Online Institute is our aspiration to support individuals to find within themselves the courage to care - to give back to life - and so change the world, and ourselves, one person, one moment, at a time.
Source:At the root of the World Dharma vision is the Sanskrit word “Dharma,” reputedly the oldest word in use describing consciousness in relation to freedom. By combining the words “World” and “Dharma,” the umbrella concept “World Dharma” was formed, which highlights the inseparable interrelatedness of all things - all dimensions of consciousness with the material world in and around us. And from this central realization, World Dharma consciousness emphasizes liberating all forms and expressions of relationship from fear, aggression, and ignorance.
