About
Every day, State and Local governments across the US and Canada hold meetings and make decisions that affect millions of lives. People have a right to know what’s happening in their governments, but exercising that right isn’t always easy: the information is out there– it has to be, by law– but it can be difficult to find, and tedious to sift through. But with CivicBand, you can search through a database of more than 8 million pages (and counting!) of records and meeting minutes from more than 700 municipalities across North America.
CivicBand is a tool for citizens, activists, journalists, and anyone else that cares about regional issues and holding elected officials to account. We're just getting started, and we’d love for you to get involved. Check out how we’ve built CivicBand below, and reach out to [email protected] if you want to get more involved.
