What are you up to?

Share an update on the gathering you're hosting, project you've launched, or other accomplishments!

You’re doing it! Civic catalysts across the CU network are building a culture of powerful, responsible citizenship — city by city, gathering by gathering, project by project.

We want to circulate how you’re activating citizenship and sparking civic cultural change in your community. You sharing updates about your efforts allows us to better support you, circulate valuable information and insights to other catalysts, and tell a story of the transformation happening across the country.

Please take a few moments to share how it’s going, what you’re learning, how you’re succeeding, and what you need.
