Case study by AmericaSpeaks: A Region Revitalizing Their Economy Through Citizen Engagement Voices & Choices was created by the Fund for Our Economic Future to develop a public mandate for change to produce a stronger Northeast Ohio region with more jobs and better opportunities for everyone. Between August 2005 and the fall of 2006, Voices & Choices engaged more than 20,000 people from across a 15-county region and educated hundreds of thousands more. The result has been a greater awareness of the challenges that face Northeast Ohio as a region and a shared set of priorities to overcome those challenges, a framework for current implementation efforts.
