The first in a Fall Series of Hot Topics.

This program will focus on understanding the importance of civic engagement to democracy and to healthy, vibrant communities. Our speaker, Jake Loesch from the Citizens League, and panelists will discuss their civic engagement journeys, identify barriers to participation in the civic life of the community, particularly for those who have historically been left out, and strategize ways to create inclusive civic engagement.
