Civic Impact Academy Info Session
We’d like to formally invite you to our first Civic Impact Academy virtual event happening Wednesday, June 12, 2024.
In a lunch-and-learn style webinar, we will introduce the Civic Impact Academy mission and describe the learning format. We will also answer frequently asked questions and shed light on what our Civic Impact Academy will look like.
The session will be recorded.
