Take Civic Action

In an era where civic engagement is crucial for communities, the Civic Action Passport aims to foster active participation among Wichita residents.  

This innovative collaboration between the Wichita Public Library, the City of Wichita, and the Kansas Leadership Center encourages community members to attend events and complete activities that enhance their understanding of civic responsibilities and opportunities. 

Civic action is more than voting or attending meetings. It’s about connecting with others and actively shaping the place you live.  

 

How to Participate

Get your passport at any Wichita Public Library location or visit www.wichitalibrary.org/action to participate online and learn more about the program.
