A Greater Madison Vision

Wondering if an AGMV survey results presentation could benefit your organization? Take a look at Steve Steinhoff’s presentation to @fitchburgbiz to get an idea of the type of information we have to share. bit.ly/AGMV_Fitchburg…

Last year, we identified top goals and actions based on key survey findings. This year, we will work toward achieving those goals by influencing policies and decisions. View AGMV’s Goals and Key Actions for the Greater Madison Region at greatermadisonvision.com/vision

With Madison poised to become a national tech hub, we must ensure everyone benefits from this growth. AGMV partners like @ULGM are already leading the charge with training programs and employer partnerships that connect employees to living-wage jobs. bit.ly/3475Btq

“The overall conclusion of the meeting was that the complex issue of increased water volume poses myriad problems for humans and wildlife, solutions require teamwork from all of us and, often, they won’t be an easy or immediate fix.” bit.ly/2qzQ5rL @MikeR_CARPC
