Congress. The President. The Supreme Court. We think of government and politics through the lens of what is happening in Washington. But we are far more affected by our local officials, community volunteers, and every day citizens than anything decided in DC. This podcast brings these stories to you through conversations with the people shaping our lives in our communities. Born and raised in South Jersey, I know first-hand the strength of our neighborhoods. At 16, I volunteered for my congressman where I learned that constituent service is a primary responsibility of any elected official. Constituent Service is another name for good government. These are the stories of government doing good in our towns, our boroughs, our municipalities, our counties, our regions, our state. I’m Jack Klett, and this is For the Public.
