Apply to an Updated Arlington Neighborhood College by March 24
This spring, Arlington County will offer its first hybrid in-person and virtual Neighborhood College experience featuring new opportunities to tour County facilities and interact with staff. Applications for the spring session are due by Friday, March 24, 2023.
The Neighborhood College program is geared toward Arlingtonians who want to become more involved in their neighborhood and countywide interests. Participants will learn about Arlington County government operations, services, and resources directly from leaders and key County department staff. The objective of the program is to foster a more active and informed community by giving Arlingtonians an opportunity to understand and engage with their local government.
Classes will be held on Wednesdays, from April 12 to June 21, between 6:30 and 9 p.m. They will feature conversations with County staff and tours of several County facilities. To graduate, participants are expected to attend at least nine of the sessions, attend a County Board meeting, a commission meeting, or a civic association meeting during the program period, and commit to volunteering 10 hours in Arlington County within six months of completing the program.
