Working to make sure local elected officials understand the importance of transparency with community members and the power of government encouraging and embracing civic engagement by informed citizens.
Expert Speakers
Attracting national experts to a free speaker series that explores what "great" looks like, shares best practices and how others have overcome challenges in their community.
Mentoring
Mentoring civic-minded individuals and groups to move ahead small and big projects that make life better for others.
