If you want to know about working with community boards, ask New York City District Council SIB Chair Tammy Rivera. She has experience and expertise that can help you make the right choices and avoid pitfalls.

Seen standing in the photo, Tammy shared her insights with UBC members at a recent workshop. Attendees learned: how community boards work; how to become active in community boards; and the correlation between community boards and area projects. The information was useful and members left knowing the value of this type of “grass roots” involvement.
