In this CitizenLab webinar, Milzy Carrasco, Director of Community Engagement for Lancaster, PA and Rebecca Woodbury, who runs Department of Civic Things, discuss how local governments can combine online and offline community engagement to reach more people, build trust, and make more strategic and equitable decisions.

From survey design to pop-up workshops, we discussed the specific tactics we’ve used in their communities to ensure traditionally under-heard groups have a say in online participation initiatives. We also looked ahead and discuss the importance of engagement when allocating ARP funding.
