Dear Michigan Citizens and Center for Michigan Members,
Please join in with the 1,500 community leaders and engaged citizens working to develop a common ground agenda to transform our state.
There are three ways you can join in the latest round Community Conversations for the Michigan’s Defining Moment Public Engagement Campaign.
1. Reconvene. If you sat in on one of the 96 Round One conversations held around the state in October and November, your conversation convener has likely already contacted you to schedule your Round Two conversation for some time in March or April. Questions? Contact us at jlafay@pscinc.com.
2. Participate online. Today we are launching the Online version of the Round 2 conversation. Click here to participate in the same kind of deliberations of those in the in-person conversations and see the thoughts of other residents across the state.

I was pleased to read John's "Other Voices" essay in the Ann Arbor News today. I hope that it will be read by many people and each will realize that we have to really know our facts when we begin to talk about our great state. Let us talk about the good things and try to do what each of us can about the bad.
My personal number one at this time is to reform our prison system and put the money we can save into education--from pre-school to post graduate. ELB
