Community Service Commission to Host Listening Tour
Michigan Ag Connection - 08/17/2018

The Michigan Community Service Commission is hosting a Volunteer Michigan Tour, visiting each region in the state to explore ways to expand service and volunteerism in communities across Michigan.

The listening tour will allow community leaders to share thoughts on how volunteers and national service can help address the state's biggest issues. Participants will discuss community challenges and ways to improve the quality of life for residents. Contributors also will explore methods to collaborate and share resources. The input gathered from the tour will help shape the future of Michigan volunteerism and national service as participants will generate ideas to include in a new State Service Plan.
