The Quality of Life Coalition and the Citizens’ Campaign of NJ presented the “Call to Service” forum held in Hoboken on Dec. 10, 2009.
Developed by the Citizens Campaign, a non-partisan group dedicated to rebuilding a culture of public service in New Jersey, the forums teach citizens how to gain appointments to non-elected positions on municipal boards and commissions.
Attendees at the Hoboken forum learned about the various municipal boards and commissions on which Hoboken residents may serve, the current service opportunities available, the appointments processes for each, and inside tips for seeking and gaining an appointment.
Eric Kurta from People for Open Government and Pat Samperi also from the QLC assisted with the event, which was hosted by Our Lady of Grace in the OLG School Hall. More than fifty people attended the very informative event, which can be viewed by clicking on the video below.
