An engaged citizenry is a critical component in building civic consensus. As San Jose continues to grow, it’s imperative to find new and creative ways to connect with current and prospective residents, and then leverage those relationships to shape the city’s future. Join SPUR as we hear from local community leaders who are trying to create new engagement platforms that promote equity and inclusion across San Jose.
