Today's guest post comes from workshop presenter Jon Mann. Enjoy!
The cause every one of you is volunteering and working to address is directly related to an urgent problem America faces today. If there was a way to bring Americans together everywhere, to present and choose a plan the majority believe would help solve that problem, would you want to know about it?
www.ourvoiceourcountry.org, a new education-based national Web site, engages the public in determining priority issues and achievable solutions. Combining relevant history, ethical decision making and free-flowing discussion, this innovative, logical and accessible Web site puts the ability to help solve America's most urgent problems at your fingertips!
On June 29 at 4:30 PM, Jon Mann (founder/director) and Brian Nickerson Ph D (An Iona College Dean) will present an interactive and useful workshop that introduces the site and engages attendees in hands-on use of its tools. The workshop is called "Our Voice Our Country.org -- Where Every Cause Can Make Their Case To The Nation." Participants are encouraged to bring a Web-ready mobile phone or laptop if you can (not required).
Those who attend will come away having identified:
• What the majority believe to be America's three most urgent national problems
• At least one expert in a relevant field with an achievable solution for each national problem
Participants will also gain a solid understanding of what www.ovoc.org is, and how any cause or individual can tap into the power of this unfiltered, non-partisan system for positive change!
Register today, while seats are still available!
