Host Danielle Holly talks citizen engagement with Myung Lee, Executive Director of Cities of Service, a nonprofit that helps mayors build stronger cities by changing the way local government and citizens work together.

Intent to volunteer is significantly higher than actual rates of volunteerism, indicating that people want to get involved, they just don't know where to start or how they want to give their time and talents. Cities of Service activates this dormant civic engagement by helping local governments to partner with the community and get better at facilitating opportunities for citizens to get involved.
