Citizen Outreach

Throughout the year, the city seeks to engage citizens in a variety of special programs. These programs are designed to give citizens valuable knowledge of resources through a behind-the-scenes look at their local government. A number of graduates have utilized their experience and knowledge gained through these programs to pursue public service opportunities, such as serving on local boards and commissions and other public offices.
