If you're subscribed to our e-news, you already know we're gearing up for our 2010 Community Matters Campaign! (CMC for short.) This year's theme is public trust: we'll explore different aspects of public trust through forums, election debates, community dialogues, online resources and (new this year!) an online living voters guide.
What do you think about public trust?
- Do you live in a close-knit community?
- Do you trust your neighbors or your government to step in and intervene if necessary?
- How do you think public trust influences current immigration policy reform discussions?
- How would you prefer to engage with your fellow citizens and elected officials to express your voice and play a role in policy outcomes?
- Do you feel like you know about issues that are important to you and how you can take action on them?
- If you take the time to get involved, do you feel like it matters?
New this year, CityClub is partnering with the University of Washington Center for Communication and Civic Engagement and Department of Computer Science and Engineering to create a first-ever "Living Voters Guide" developed by and for the public on the fall ballot initiatives. Through community deliberation, participants will create opinion statements and recommendations for fellow voters.
As always, the campaign begins with United Way's Day of Caring and ends on Election Day. This year our kick-off event will be on September 21: A Conversation with David Gregory, host of NBC's "Meet the Press"!
