"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead
➤ Do you want to see change in your community?
➤ Do you want to have a voice in the decisions being made?
➤ Attending and speaking at local public meetings – meetings of your city council, school board, CSD – is an important place to start.
But maybe you’re concerned that you don’t know how to go about it.
Join the Civil Discourse Committee for this in-person forum on May 21 to learn how public meetings are run and how you can contribute and make your voice heard. Get tips on listening and speaking skills that can make you a more effective communicator.
