FEAST: CIVICS 101 Pt. 2

December 2 (11AM-1PM)

The decisions made closest to home often have the most direct impact on our daily lives. During this FEAST session, participants will take a deeper look at city, county, and tribal government and learn how these systems serve local communities. Attendees will gain a better understanding of the services, programs, and policies managed at the local level, along with the role of tribal governments as sovereign nations. Guest speakers will discuss how city, county, and tribal governments make decisions, provide services, and work with community members to address local needs. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of how these different governments serve the people and communities they represent.

Topics include:

• How city government works
• The role of county government and local services
• Understanding tribal government and sovereignty
• Opportunities for civic participation and advocacy
• Guest speakers (to be announced)
