Connect-to-Council is an organization dedicated to connecting you with the City Council Members in Santa Ana, California. Our goal is to help you resolve the specific problems in your neighborhood.
At the Santa Ana City Council meeting on July 6, 2010 , the Connect-to-Council committee members were recognized for organizing the Santa Ana Urban Leadership Forum that was held on May 1, 2010 at the Rancho Santiago School District Office.
Connect-to-Council's objectives for the Santa Ana residents:
To increase neighborhood participation in civic affairs and empower representative leaders to have a greater voice in the decision making processes that affect their lives.
To bring neighborhood and city government representatives together to actively communicate and strategize about shared concerns and opportunities.
To develop a new civic infrastructure that empowers neighborhood association leaders to positively and constructively communicate with their elected officials to develop a foundation for innovative ways to deal with a variety of issues including economic development, housing affordability, foreclosures, redevelopment, gangs, safety concerns and violence.
To develop more sustainable neighborhood leadership through an educational conference to help neighborhood representatives obtain a better understanding of our city structure, learn leadership strategies and community problem solving techniques.
