Description: eveloping leaders who can govern for the common good is a critical part of the Citizens League's mission. And given the unique non-partisan and multi-issue/multi-sector role of the Citizens League, civic leadership development is also one of our great opportunities. Civic capacity building is a part of everything we do: from casual gatherings such as our Policy and a Pint® series, to our civic policy agenda, to structured classes that help people be part of an ongoing civic base. The Emerging Leaders committee organizes events and programs to engage Citizens League members, especially young members 21-35. They host happy hours, intergenerational events, and Policy and a Pint® after parties, and organize the ambassador program connecting new and experienced members.

Now finished, the Minnesota Anniversary Project (or MAP 150) tested new tools and processes that place citizens more fully in the role of "co-producers" of the public good. What we learned through the course of the project informs to a great deal not only how the Citizens League structures its policy processes, but also the findings and recommendations of our work.
