Are you interested in building connections between the Ritchie Community League and the City of Edmonton?

Civics volunteers help to access city-wide programs and opportunities, and liaise with the city to advocate for our community.

Fill out the Volunteer Inquiry Form to join the team!

So, what does Civics look like? There are lots of ways to engage with the City and help Ritchie take advantage of what the city has to offer:

• Write to the city on behalf of the league

• Liaise with city representatives

• Investigate and report on various issues, such as:

• Vision Zero

• District Planning

• Rainbow Crossings

• The occasional special project

• Set up surveys to learn community priorities

• Send us your written opinions

• Talk with community members and report back

Did You Know?

Community leagues have a unique position to forward the wishes of the larger community in discussion with property developers and the City of Edmonton’s planners. The Civics Director addresses community member concerns and is the league’s voice when further advocacy is required. Some common areas include city planning, development, and transportation.
