What are the issues and opportunities for increased civic engagement that you care about? What are your ideas, questions, recommendations, concerns, needs, and desires for resolution and future directions? Let’s talk about how we can improve our state and increase access to the policymaking process for all Granite Staters. For more information about Open Spaces Technology click here.
