Do you wish you had more volunteers? Do you have persistent board and committee vacancies? Do you have big issues to be voted on at Town Meeting but unsure people in the community are educated about the issues?
In this episode of the RETHINK LOCAL podcast I talk with Nate Bernitz, who is a community and economic development field specialist at the University of New Hampshire extension and we dive into a bunch of practical takeaways that you can use to help improve your local civic ecosystem through more engaged and effective committees and volunteers.
I also created a free resource for towns, board members, or members of the public looking to have some of these best practices at your fingertips so you can find ways to boost volunteerism and engagement in your town. Just enter your name and email below to get a link to download the four-page PDF for free. Don’t forget to send in any tips to Alex that you have seen work well so we can include that in future resources. Enjoy!
