Our mission is to provide the structure and opportunities for people to collaboratively solve problems. When a variety of stakeholders with differing values, opinions and viewpoints are able to come together, they make better decisions. When decision makers deliberately engage the public in an open and honest way, they earn the trust and valued input of stakeholders. Earning this trust is critical in solving todays complex issues.
