THESE DATASETS ARE FREELY AND UNIVERSALLY AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC.


THE CENTER'S GOVERNMENT SERVICES PROGRAM EDUCATES GOVERNMENT AGENCIES ABOUT THE SKILLS, STRATEGIES, AND TOOLS TO ENGAGE THEIR CITIZENS. THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH (1) WRITTEN AND MULTIMEDIA MATERIALS AND (2) IN-PERSON TRAINING SEMINARS FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.
