Hello,

We are excited to announce our upcoming Fall 2022 Citizens Academy! Through this eight week program, the City of American Canyon strives to develop future leaders and build a better community by creating well-informed and empowered residents. When residents have a deep understanding of how city government works, they can better engage in meaningful dialogue and engagement – shaping this wonderful community we call home.

Each week will cover a different department within the City, providing participants an understanding of its critical functions and how those functions interact to form a strong and effective government. Classes will be held on Wednesdays beginning September 28, 2022, through November 16, 2022, from 7-9 PM.

Throughout the Academy, participants will have the opportunity to:

Meet with the City management team, including the City Manager and department.

Learn how decisions are made, how city funds are allocated and how departments operate.

Ask questions of the management team.

Hear the current status and plans for American Canyon's development.

Learn about current issues and proposed projects in the City.

Participate in discussions about City policy.

Tour City facilities.

This is a fantastic opportunity and we encourage you to join. The deadline to register is September 18, 2022 and participation is limited to residents who are 18+. Click here to register!
