"As one of my top priorities for the City of Pittsburgh, I have worked to reform government through transparency and civic involvement. I believe that residents of the City of Pittsburgh deserve to know and understand how the City functions, how it serves their community and how they can work with local government to make their neighborhood a better place to live and work." - Mayor Luke Ravenstahl
The Civic Leadership Academy is a free course about local government created by Mayor Ravenstahl to foster more informed, effective and inspired community and civic leadership. It includes tours, hands-on demonstrations, and fun activities that give an up-close and personal view of how the City is governed and run. In each session, participants learn about a different City department and the services that it provides to make for a safer, more livable City. Two sessions are held per year in the Spring and Fall. The Youth Civic Leadership Academy for high-school students is offered during the Summer. For additional information, please call 412-255-4765 or email servepgh@pittsburghpa.gov.
