Civic Engagement
COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION. VOICE. ACTION.
LEAD empowers Connecticut residents to participate fully in civic life through education, leadership development, and community action. We believe informed and engaged communities create lasting change.
Civic engagement goes beyond voting. It includes understanding how local government works, knowing your rights and responsibilities, and actively contributing to the improvement of your neighborhood and city.
