A first-timer should feel just as at home as anyone else at every public meeting.
Every Public Meeting is a free, crowd-sourced directory of every public meeting from every state, county, and local public body.
Our vision is that every public meeting everywhere has a super-simple, highly-shareable link that tells you everything: when, where, how to attend, what you can do if you can't, which decision-makers will be present, contact information, parking, childcare, and accessibility information.
Why are local meetings important?
Big decisions about our own community are made every day at local groups like City Councils, County Boards or Legislatures, School Districts, Regional Transit Agencies. But often times, we've never been to these meetings or don't even know where and when they happen.
We have the power to transform our community.
When people most impacted by local decisions show up, things change: we will understand each other better, come up with better ideas, and our elected leaders will make better decisions. Let's show up at #EveryPublicMeeting!
Take the #EveryPublicMeeting challenge!
