Issues Forums - All Forums
Our 30+ local Issues Forums serve 15 communities and thousands of participants across the U.S., the UK, and New Zealand. Since 1994, we've built local-up democracy and community online. Universal civility rules (no name calling, local scope, etc.) and volunteer local facilitators make the difference. Participants must register and use their real names.
