Work with Citizen Boards and Committees

This one-day workshop explores promising practices of non-mandated, local government citizen advisory boards. Participants will learn about important nuts-and-bolts, including clarifying roles and expectations; recruiting, appointing, and training volunteers; staffing and managing committee work; and evaluating CAB effectiveness. Participants will also contribute to the learning by completing a pre-workshop survey and doing group exercises to address key issues and promising practices from their experience.
