As part of this year’s All-America City Award Event, the League’s Civic Genius team is demoing It’s Your America, a dynamic, participatory event that invites residents to come together for a few hours of fun, connection, and thoughtful deliberation. We’ll dive into a topic that matters to all of us: election safety and preparedness. Participants will engage across differences, weigh policy tradeoffs, and generate community-rooted solutions to shared challenges. Developed with a Hollywood reality show producer, the experience uses board games, team challenges, and more to build both civic muscle and better working relationships.

The It’s Your America Workshop is included with registration for this year’s All-America City Award Event. If you have already registered for AAC or are part of a finalist delegation, no separate registration is needed for the workshop. Alternatively, you can attend the workshop independently by registering below.
