UPCOMING EVENTS
Our philosophy on community engagement
WisACT plans community events throughout the year. Whether they are coffee meet-ups with our co-leads, trainings with our partners, or a booth at a county fair, the idea is the same: to build relationships before we need them.
In an uncertain world where trust in a variety of institutions - and in each other - sometimes seems weak, we believe strongly that we all need to build and nourish our relationships with each other.
If you have an idea for a WisACT event, small or large, please reach out to our state co-leads or to our state coordinator:
CO-LEADS
