Membership in a Connected Community

Have you ever wanted help getting people to do something to improve their community?  So have we--and CCR is here to help you rally your community to get something done together.  By becoming a CCR member you can tap our collective spirit and experience, building your capacity to engage citizens and get things done:
  • Community of practice.  A support group for civic leaders trying to engage citizens.  Bring your project, ask for help, get answers.  Free to members.
  • Course discounts.  All public civic engagement courses are discounted 20% for members.  
  • Online archive.  Through a members-only resource section of our website, we provide you with great articles and references that will help you learn about and implement citizen engagement.
  • Community leadership.  CCR members help guide the work of CCR, from identifying "hot issues" that need better public deliberation to key projects that need CCR leadership to engage citizens.  In other words, our members band together to make a difference by engaging citizens where we think it's important.
  • Building the movement.   When you become a CCR member, you are standing for the idea that citizen involvement not only matters, but is the essential ingredient to the long-term sustainability of society.  We ask you to contribute $25 to support the organization financially, but also spread the word about the need for citizen activism and CCR's role in making it happen.  We can make a difference in inspiring many other people to make a difference in their communities.
