Coffee With Community Leaders Returns This Week

We're kicking off our spring sessions of Coffee With Community Leaders this week—a monthly opportunity to connect, converse, and collaborate with those making an impact in our community.

This informal gathering creates space for community members to engage with local leaders over a cup of coffee, ask questions, share ideas, and gain insight into the decisions shaping our city and county. Each month features different guests, offering fresh perspectives and meaningful conversation.

No agenda. No presentations. Just community, coffee, and connection. This month's guests are listed below. We hope to see you there!
