After a successful inaugural course, and armed with the first participants’ suggestions, the Laurel Citizen’s University is coming back better than ever!
Our first group of citizens had high accolades for the program and said they gained a better understanding of how local government functions, through participation and interaction with our Government staff.
If you would like to familiarize yourself with the purpose, process and structure of your local government, then this course is for you. Seats go fast for this FREE training, so sign up quickly!
