DESIGN A MORE AWESOME GOVERNMENT
By the People. For the People. Today.

Civic design is gaining momentum at the local, state and federal level, offering opportunities for designers and technologists to positively impact the daily lives of citizens. There’s a growing ecosystem of people working to make government services simple, effective and efficient.

Sarah Brooks, a 2014–15 Presidential Innovation Fellow, will share insights on a service designer’s career with the U.S. federal government and will discuss the organizations leading innovative change in this country.
