Connect
The Citizens League creates common ground to bring people together for the common good.
- Our events, study committees, educational series and special
initiatives connect you with the people who are making a difference in Minnesota. - Our partnerships with other nonprofit organizations--including the Humphrey Institute, Minnesota Public Radio, 89.3 The Current and MACC Alliance of Connected Communities--convene people to build a better Minnesota.
Engage
We know you're busy. Your level of engagement can ebb and flow with your life.
- Stay informed with the Minnesota Journal. Each month, it takes you behind the headlines, provides context for the sound bites, and analyzes the trends driving decisions.
- Get plugged in by visiting our website. It's an easy way to find out about major policy issues affecting our communities and must-see events.
- Get involved by attending events. Morning Mind-Openers bring you
face-to-face with Minnesota thought leaders. After-hours Mind-Blowers provide an informal forum for exploring ideas with policy makers, experts and analysts. - Shape public policy by serving on a study committee. Generalists and experts meet over several months to study an issue, come to consensus on the best solution for Minnesota, and make recommendations. Policymakers listen, knowing the recommendations represent informed and nonpartisan opinion.
