Futurewise is dedicated to empowering communities to make better decisions about land use and transportation that will lead to a better quality of life for residents without damaging forests and farmlands with irresponsible development. If that sounds interesting to you, please get involved by volunteering some of your time for one or more of the following projects.

General Outreach:
Help Futurewise spread the word about a better future for our communities!
Learn about participating in planning processes for your community’s future and help get other people in your community involved. No prior knowledge of county planning is needed. We need volunteers help get information to people about Smart Growth, Transportation, Density, Climate Change, and other issues that effect our communities. This job will give you the most experience working with the public and students, and it will familiarize with the public interest side of land use. This job includes staffing tables at events and helping to create literature and visual aids.

Data Entry:
Work behind the scenes to keep everything up-to-date!
If you only have a couple hours a week to offer, or if you prefer computer tasks, you can still make a big difference by helping us keep track of data. This helps Futurewise ensure that our members and activists have all the current news they need to positively effect planning in their communities.

More:
There are more ways to help out!
There are many more ways you can help. Please contact Kitty (see contact information above) if you are interested in volunteering but had something else in mind.
