Applications are being accepted by the Douglas County Department of External Affairs for the Douglas County Citizen’s Academy.

This 10-week interactive program is offered once a year to encourage civic engagement and enhance communication between county officials and citizens.

Beginning June 2, the Citizen’s Academy will meet once a week on Tuesday evenings.

However, the schedule may be changed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
