OverviewWhy do so few of us trust our government, take interest in politics, or assume active roles in our communities? Engaged provides a unique perspective on the state of our civic life today and why it matters to democracy. It explores key aspects of engagement through personal stories, vignette's from the Shaw neighborhood in Washington, DC, and inspiring examples of those who are trying to bring about change. Our political gridlock and the election of 2016 have revealed growing levels of mistrust and disengagement. Participating in civic life is just not made easy for many us but has demonstrable impact to the world around us. This book makes the case for investing more of our time and energy into our civic lives, both as a country and individuals. Engaged speaks to all Americans -- veterans, entrepreneurs, religious leaders, community organizers, educators, parents, and everyday citizens -- who want to make a difference in the country we all love.
