It is an international community of citizens between the ages of 18 to 40 with the aim and purpose of creating positive changes. Today the JCI Structure is standardized, yet varies from country to country. This is because each National Organization has different ties to their local government and Chambers of Commerce, giving them different benefits and requirements they must adhere to. This is the
schema, usually applied
LOM - Local Organization of Members, is a local "Chapter" in a town or area with around 20-50 members. It is usually its own legal entity like an association and has its own characteristics based on the personalities that make out this group of young people
ROM - Regional Organization of Members, is used in USA, Germany, and a few others to identify a district group within a NOM. NOM - National Organization of Members, basically JCI at a country level. Much is coordinated at this level, especially international relationships, national congresses and international benefits for members at the LOM-level. Area - each area organizes its own events
Worldwide - the global chamber
