Pages Tagged with "Political Involvement"

The common thread of participation in and building of one’s community. It means improving the quality of life, making a difference, and developing the combination of knowledge, skills, values, trust and motivation among people to give back. Elements of civic engagement include community service, participation in groups, connection to information and current events, connection to individuals and organizations, and political involvement. The ways one participates in the political process, including voting and being registered to vote, as well as non-electoral participation such as contacting an elected official or expressing political views.
