Being civically engaged goes beyond election day. It is important for all residents to be an active member of their community, year-round. Our civic engagement work ensures residents are empowered to participate in our democracy.

CONTACT YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS

Your elected officials represent you, so it is important to maintain regular contact with your leaders to share your thoughts and ideas. View our MyNWI Voice program to receive best practices when writing to your elected officials. 

ATTEND PUBLIC MEETINGS

Traditionally, each community's local government hosts at least one public meeting a month. Attending these public meetings is essential to being a strong civic resident in your community. It is a great opportunity to meet your local leaders, fellow residents, receive community updates and express your opinions. Take a look at finding your community's next public meeting.
