Issues Overview
Within each of these three broad areas, our citizen participants will identify the most pressing problems in the state, then work together and with experts to develop innovative solutions. Participants will then choose proposals from each issue area to focus on, advocating whatever action is necessary to make these proposed solutions reality.
To kick off the conversation, visit the CIVIC Forum to participate in discussions on each issue area. We'll be expanding this dialogue statewide, in both online and live sessions, and the issues and solutions identified in our Forum will serve as an important starting point for those wider discussions. Stay tuned to the individual issue pages. As we begin to identify focus issues and policy proposals, information will be posted here.
