Vibrant civic life is paramount to moving forward on solving problems and building a bright future for Arizona. The Center for the Future of Arizona is working with the Arizona Center for Civic Leadership to measure progress, frame conversations, and prompt action by bringing organizations together statewide to strengthen civic life in our state. This session will explore findings from the Arizona Civic Health Progress Meters and newly released data from the CFA Gallup Arizona 2020 survey.
