2019 Active Citizens Conference
Saturday, March 23, 2019
9AM – 4PM
Williamsburg, Virginia, The College of William and Mary
Active citizenship is prioritizing community in your values and life choices. Active citizens educate themselves on community issues, intentionally listen to other’s experiences, build on existing assets, and join with others in community-driven change. Sometimes that looks like sweeping initiatives that make grand change, but more often it looks like an everyday commitment to justice and working together so everyone can reach their full potential. Active citizens are often those who show up each day committed to getting done what needs done.
On March 23, join students, faculty and community leaders at the College of William and Mary to learn about active citizenship.
