educational resources

East Vincent Advocacy’s mission includes education efforts about municipal government and planning for our residents. With this in mind, we have created a list of training resources that we believe would be beneficial to our members. We are all lifetime learners and while this list of suggested training is long, please consider setting aside some time to learn from the resources that are available to you. 

 

Remember, information is power and we want to have a seat at the table by having our voices heard. We can make a much larger impact by becoming more informed about how municipal government works and understand (at a high level) zoning and planning issues.
