ROOKWOOD GROUP

ROOKWOOD GROUP

The Rookwood Group is a consortium of nonprofit civic entities in Greater Cincinnati that have agreed to meet on a regular basis to coordinate their public education efforts.  The group’s  current members include the Cincinnatus Association, Citizens for Civic Renewal, the Woman’s City Club, the League of Women Voters of the Cincinnati Area, Applied Information Resources (AIR, Inc.), and the Urban League.  We have worked together on developing and presenting a number of public forums, we publicize our respective programs to each other’s members, we try to avoid scheduling conflicting events, we do research together on public policy issues and share the results as a group with public officials, and in general we all support improving citizen engagement with local government.  Several members of the Cincinnatus Association attend Rookwood Group meetings on our organization’s behalf and lend their personal time and efforts towards accomplishing these goals.
