Online Community Conversations offer opportunity to participate wherever you are
Community Conversation issue guidesThe Center for Michigan engagement team is back in the field, crisscrossing the state to facilitate Community Conversations in schools, boardrooms, libraries, places of worship, bars, and more. (To find a Conversation near you, visit our Community Conversation calendar.) We feel fortunate that we get to witness state residents share their ideas and priorities for making Michigan a better place.
The topic this time, jobs and workforce development, is so critical to Michigan’s future that the discussions have been passionate and attendance has been high. We are fired up and excited to hear from communities across the state.
But what if you can’t attend an in-person Conversation? You’re not left out in the cold! We’ve created online versions of each of our Conversation modules so you can participate from the comfort of your own home. Visit our online Community Conversation page. You have three topics (or modules) to choose from. Choose the Conversation topic that best fits your current experience in the Michigan job market.
The online Community Conversation is an easy way to share your ideas and priorities on this important topic. Each module takes just 15-20 minutes to complete, and videos from our Engagement team will guide you through the discussion. Share it with your friends, family, and neighbors—we want to hear from residents across the state.
