PNUC/NLC Partnership for Working Toward Inclusive Communities

Over many years, the National League of Cities and its members have shown a strong and continuing interest in what it takes to build inclusive communities, as well as an abiding belief in inclusion as a condition for community success.

City and town officials can be proud of the work we have all accomplished together on these issues under past NLC presidents and leaders.

Past President of the National League of Cities, James Hunt, and the PNUC are dedicated to continuing in this spirit, to use this common thread that connects our work on equality, fairness, and democratic governance. This unifying thread is a commitment to the power of inclusiveness as a force for stronger, more successful communities.

NLC and PNUC members now must use the work and the passion of previous municipal leaders. We will raise awareness and focus attention on the importance and value of inclusive communities. Together, we will weave these efforts together to create continuing, collective, and sustainable action.

It is not the time to shy away from this important issue, but instead it is the time for bold leaders to take risks and make a stand.

I encourage you to join PNUC and the NLC in the Partnership for Working Toward Inclusive Communities; to pass a resolution reaffirming your community’s commitment to promoting inclusion; and to proudly display a sign that serves as a daily reminder that your community is working towards a better future for all its citizens.

I look forward to your support and participation in this effort.
