Our Valley Our Future and NCW Libraries are partnering to host a series of online forums for community engagement as OVOF prepares its community five year plan. The forums serve as a gathering place where citizens can weigh in on both what works in the community and issues in need of improvement.

"The initiative includes a bunch of different things from housing to social issues," said Bill Carroll, director of branch operations. "This is a forum to gather people in the community that are interested stakeholders in the direction our communities are going."
