Want to become a TLC?
In the fall, interested seniors may download TLC applications from the Sisters Only site or request one from International Office (IO). Applications are typically due to IO in November. The Executive Director and National Council review them and select applicants for personal interviews with the Executive Director. The interviews take place in January and February with selection in March. The new TLCs spend two weeks at IO for training in late July and early August. They travel from August through April with holiday breaks.
