3 Fantastic Opportunities To Get Involved In Great Falls

If you follow any of my articles, you already know I'm a huge advocate for getting involved in our community.

Here are three fantastic opportunities to get involved and actually have a say in Great Falls.

The City Commission is accepting applications from interested citizens for positions on three advisory boards.

This commission consists of nine to eleven members who provide support, coordination, and information exchange for international programs within the community.

Currently, there are four vacant positions on the ACIR Commission.
