The Academy of Citizen Engagement helps people understand the public issues affecting their communities and gives them meaningful ways to participate.
Public issues can be complicated. ACE makes them easier to understand.
We research what communities think, explain complex issues in plain language, and create opportunities for people to learn, ask questions and participate.
Clear, useful information that helps people understand public issues and how those issues may affect their communities.

ACE works with companies, developers, organizations and community leaders to understand public attitudes, educate communities and build effective citizen-engagement programs.
