Take the Civic Action Challenge

Whether you’re interested in learning how local government works, staying informed about important public policy issues, or actively participating in your community, attending a local public board meeting is a great way to start. You can attend in person—bring a friend if you like—or watch virtually. If that’s not convenient, most meetings are recorded for later viewing. After attending, we’d love to hear from you! Please take a short survey to share your experience.

Win FREE Merch! For each member's completed survey, you’ll be entered into a drawing at our May and December meetings for a chance to win some awesome League SWAG!

Important Note: League members attending these meetings do so as citizens, not as official Observers or representatives of the League. However, official League Observers are welcome to participate, and submitting your Observer reports will count towards this challenge.
