Welcome to Insight Western Mass (IWM)
Formerly known as Insight PV

Accessibility at Insight PV
We are firmly committed to welcoming diversity of cultural or religious background, race, socio-economic class, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, education, or physical ability within our midst, so that all might feel included and comfortable in practicing here.

Diverse Sangha Builders (formerly Multicultural Affairs Committee)
​
Aware of the particular suffering generated by racism and ethnocentrism, Insight PV is developing an initiative to take action to help make the Center a more accessible and inclusive sangha to people of color and cultural groups that are underrepresented at IPV.  The Diverse Sangha Builders meet regularly. Please contact the Center if you are interested in being involved with this committee by emailing: general@insightpv.org.

Fragrance Free
In keeping with this principle, we ask that participants not wear fragrances or scented body care products here, so that our members who have chemical sensitivities might feel comfortable as well. Thank you for your consideration.

Wheelchair Accessible
The Eastworks building and Insight PV are wheelchair accessible. The closest elevator is at the West entrance

Assisted Listening System
We have assistive listening devices available at the Center. These enable the hearing-impaired to better participate in meditations, talks and discussions. If you'd like to try the system, please ask a teacher, practice leader, or manager on your next visit.
