Engage Gig Harbor is a non-partisan group formed by neighbors to inspire citizen participation in the civic process while also encouraging more connection with and from our elected representatives and city staff members.
We Value:
Engaged citizens who are willing to work together to make our community better.
Representatives that promote civic dialogue and foster consensus building.
Elected officials who understand our community’s culture, values, and priorities through effective listening.
Representatives who are willing to express their ideas and opinions openly in public meetings.
We Believe:
Robust conversations lead to greater community trust.
Every voice matters but many voices are better.
Voting is a responsibility that gives a voice to the community.
When candidates run unopposed it undermines the power of the vote.
Barriers to public involvement are harmful to our community and need to be removed.
Engage Gig Harbor is an all volunteer group dedicated to making a positive impact on the local area. We are passionate about creating a vibrant community that fosters connection and engagement. This is an active group so raise your hand if you would like to help steer this community-based effort in the future.
