Come learn about the proposal development process and how to sign up to be a budget delegate.

Budget delegates develop ideas from the community into well-developed proposals that can be voted on and implemented. As a budget delegate, you will both learn how to develop local policies and provide and serve your community by making Evanston a better place to live, work & study. 

Anyone 14 and up who lives, works, or studies in Evanston can sign up to be a budget delegate. Delegates under 18 require a sponsor, such as a parent, teacher or staff from a youth serving organization. You do not need any prior experience to be a budget delegate and all are welcome to join so long as you can commit to fulfilling budget delegate responsibilities. 

Lunch will be served and transportation is available upon request.
