JEDI Program

"The panel discussion was eye-opening and reinforced the importance of advocacy in civil engineering. I learned that leveraging our technical expertise to influence local infrastructure decisions can have an immediate and meaningful impact. Simple actions, like attending a city council meeting or reaching out to local leaders, can help shape healthier, more connected communities."
