We corresponded several months ago when you let us know that you're doing outreach for the Partnership for Civic Engagement at Colorado College. Now that you're a member of the Five Freedoms Network, you can join the Public Achievement group. Under "Groups" in the right nav bar, you should see the Public Achievement logo. Click on that and then "Join Public Achievement" (at least I think that's how it works - the options look different once you're a member).

I'd love to hear more about your work as Outreach Programs Coordinator, and any ideas you may have for how The Five Freedoms Project and the Network might be helpful.

Meanwhile, we're partnering with The Forum for Education and Democracy on their Will We Really Campaign, launched on February 6, and hope you'll take a few minutes to visit the campaign web site: www.willwereally.org!

As you can see from the world map on our home page, we have a growing, eclectic community of individuals from across the globe -- from Brooklyn to Pakistan, from North Dakota to China. Thank you for taking the time to add your voice to that fascinating mix.

As you surf around the Network and its companion site, www.fivefreedoms.org, I urge you to share your voice throughout. Take our You Be The Judge First Amendment quiz (a new scenario every two weeks). Leave a comment on a fellow member's personal page and make a new contact. Upload a video to our gallery, or watch and react to one already there. Join (or start) a group or visit the Soapbox to contribute to (or start) a discussion. And invite others to join us.

In short, use your voice to co-create our online community :-)

Post a comment on my page anytime with questions or ideas. And please, the next time you're online, upload a photo to your personal profile -- the easiest way to make a virtual network feel more personal is by seeing each other's faces (and profile answers). Thanks again!
