Civic Participation
CCTPG believes the strongest advocates in Sacramento are residents from local communities; however, many residents are unfamiliar with the legislative process. To remove this barrier, CCTPG has hosted trainings and workshops, facilitated meetings with legislators and their constituents and prepared residents to testify before committee hearings. As a result, those residents feel empowered to advocate for policies not only at the state level but also in their local communities.
To help residents participate in the legislative process, CCTPG has created numerous training materials. Many of these documents were used for our trainings and workshops. If you would like to learn how you can participate in the legislative process, you can review our training materials by clicking on the resources link below.
