A recent post on the ELGL by Meghan details how the cities of Austin, TX, and Boulder, CO leveraged their online engagement spaces to engage on paid sick leave and community broadband initiatives.

This webinar provides even more case studies about how engagement can leverage policy change. Listen as Meghan talks strategy, ideas and best practices to activate your community utilizing online engagement tools.
