IDEAS!! Share your ideas with one another for what you can do! I’ll get us started—check your local city government for community meetings such as city council, planning boards, etc. Many of these are broadcast online! You may watch a prerecorded meeting if it is recent (within the past 60 days). Check UK and other universities and colleges! Look at NASW chapters for events and ideas! Use the Community Event Ideas (assignment due Module 5) to share ideas!
