Community Forums
JLC’s Community Research and Project Development Committee is hosting a series of issue-specific forums during the League year that bring together representatives from non-profits organizations, agencies and other groups working in common areas. Each of these forums is designed as a facilitated conversation where members can learn more about specific issues facing our community and ways they can become involved in addressing them. Click here for links to upcoming forums on our community calendar or contact Michelle Clayton mclayton@turnerpadget.com to learn about upcoming topics and dates for 2010-2011.
