YourPBC.org

 

  

YourPBC.org is a website that makes local issues in Palm Beach County easy to understand, discuss and act upon. The Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties started this site with a generous grant from the James S. and John L. Knight Foundation.

Now managed by the Economic Development and Research Institute (EDRI) with support from the Community Foundation, the vision of YourPBC is to promote an informed, engaged Palm Beach County citizenry by ensuring citizens have greater access to the information they need to thrive in a democracy and act in their community’s best interest.

Citizens have changed the way they take in and act upon information. YourPBC.org will help more people become informed and take action on issues that are important to all of us in Palm Beach County.

Things to look for include:

  • Issue pages summarize and give the background and updates on local issues. Content is grouped by issue, such as “youth crime” or “water quality.” This way, no matter when you become aware of the issue , you have context.
  • Event listing. A popular, easy-to-navigate calendar with local events important to our community.
  • Partner pages. Partner pages indicate which YourPBC issues each of our nonprofit partners is working on, displays events & articles, and is integrated with each partners’ Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube accounts.

Visit the site and join in the conversation.
