Let’s Get Digital!

Posted on April 1, 2017


[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]As part of our process to reevaluate how ELGL provides services, we’re also doing an in-depth evaluation of all of our digital resources. Next week, we’re kicking off this process with a small team of ELGL members to reimagine ELGL’s blog, posts, and newsletters to ensure that we’re meeting our mission to connect, communicate and educate about local government.

This new site will anchor our member engagement efforts as well as be a home to our expanding digital services, including job postings for member organizations, surveys to quickly collect information about important local government topics, and other connection tools.

Our project team represents a a diverse group of ELGL members. You’ll hear from each of them over the course of this project, but here are some quick intros:[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”green” style=”shadow” border_width=”3″][vc_column_text]
