The Indiana Office of Communnity and Rural Affairs announced it will host five conferences across the state in August and September.
The OCRA Community Engagement Summits are open to community members and leaders, and will share community development strategies, local success stories and create opportunities for collaboration between communities.
"When I came into office, I instructed my agencies to be out in the communities not sitting in Indianapolis," Lt. Governor Micah Beckwith said. "The Community Engagement Summits are another great example of our agencies doing just that."
The Community Engagement Summits will take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., with doors opening at 9:30 a.m. ET, at the following locations:
Delphi - Aug. 26
Madison - Sept. 3
Huntingburg - Sept. 9
Wabash - Sept. 15
Noblesville - Sept. 23
Session topics will include placemaking, success stories from local communities and OCRA programming, while ending each summit with a networking opportunity. Additional segments will include a panel of local officials and leaders discussing what collaborative approaches were used to accomplish their goals, and a unique keynote speaker for each location, which will be announced ahead of each summit.
Registration is $25 and includes lunch. Capacity at some locations may be limited to a maximum of 75 attendees due to space. For more information and to register, visit in.gov/ocra/additional-resources/regional-conferences.
