We are a nonpartisan civic engagement organization dedicated to amplifying community voices in local government. Through accessible surveys and transparent reporting, we help residents engage with their elected officials and shape the future of their community.

Our Mission

We believe that informed, engaged citizens are the foundation of effective local government. Our mission is to bridge the gap between residents and their elected officials by informing our readers, gathering community input on key issues, synthesizing feedback, and presenting it directly to decision-makers.

What We Do

  • Publish weekly updates summarizing council activities and community feedback
  • Conduct regular surveys on city council agenda items and local policy issues
  • Present survey results to council members to inform their decisions
  • Provide a platform for residents to ask questions and share concerns

Supporting Community Newspapers

We provide our weekly coverage of public meetings free of charge to local media organizations, so their readers can stay informed:

  • Pittsburgh City Council
  • Pittsburgh Public School Board
  • Allegheny County Council
