Our Engagement Philosophy
The Our Missoula project will utilize continuous, relationship-based engagement that brings the whole community along. Our engagement approach focuses on three key areas. These areas are: collaborative education, sharing experiences, and building awareness of key issues. To achieve these goals, we are working to build meaningful relationships with community members that are based on trust and transparency.
We are engaging the community early and often throughout this process. There will be engagement opportunities during each of the six project phases that will range from small focus groups to large community-wide events. You can also expect to see the Our Missoula team at events around the city, at your organization's monthly meeting, and in other places throughout the community.
Attend an Event
Mark your calendar for upcoming events and join us to make your voice heard. See what's coming up and what events have happened below. If anyone attending a meeting needs special assistance, please provide 48 hours advance notice by calling Community Engagement Specialist Ashley Brittner Wells at 406-552-6221. We strive to create a supportive and accessible environment, and it is crucial to understand and address any potential barriers that might affect participation. Please share anything that may impact your continued involvement; this can include, but is not limited to, childcare, transportation, parking, accessibility, language, or other circumstances.
