Community Voices aims to encourage broad discussion on many
topics of
community interest. It’s kind of
a cross between Letters to the Editor and op-eds. This is your space to talk about important issues or
interesting people who are making a difference in our world. Column lengths should be no more than 800
words and we need a photo of the author and a bio. We welcome video commentary and other multimedia
formats. Send to news@civilbeat.org. The opinions and
information expressed in Community Voices are solely those of the authors and not Civil Beat.
