29 July Tech Lab Pgm Features EngagingPlans – Online Engmt Websites » Community

Our Friday 29 July Tech Lab program
features EngagingPlans
from
Urban Interactive Studio (UIS ).

Join us to learn more about the EngagingPlans
online tool and to hear tips about successful online engagement based on Chris
Haller’s experience working with agencies and nonprofits.

EngagingPlans is an online engagement solution tailored to
practitioners’ needs, something that’s rare in today’s world of
one-size-fits-all web applications. It solves the dilemma that many
organizations face as communication moves increasingly online and more citizens
expect the convenience of having information available on the web.

Agencies are recognizing the value of online communication among stakeholders,
citizens, and decision-makers, but often can’t afford the financial or
administrative output required to maintain an effective web presence dedicated
to a specific engagement project. EngagingPlans enables the rapid launch of an
interactive website and engagement management system, with minimal effort and
no special technical skills required.
