CWRU’s Siegal Lifelong Learning Program to host Northeast Ohio Public Policy Series

The Laura and Alvin Siegal Lifelong Learning Program at Case Western Reserve University will host a four-part Northeast Ohio Public Policy Series on critical regional issues.

The series is co-sponsored by the Siegal Lifelong Learning Program, the League of Women’s Voters-Greater Cleveland, the City Club of Cleveland and the Cleveland Jewish News Foundation.

The first program, on regional cooperation, is set for June 17. Panelists are Cuyahoga County Executive Armond Budish and Cuyahoga County Regional Coordinator Eddy Kraus. During the question-and-answer session and discussion, panelists and attendees will consider how to get 59 civic entities countywide to coordinate and cooperate with each other to benefit the region’s future economic viability.

Each 90-minute forum is free and open to the public, starting at 7 p.m. at the Siegal Lifelong Learning Program’s Beachwood facility (26500 Shaker Blvd.).

The other three forum dates and topics are:

  • July 29—Land Use in Cuyahoga County
  • Aug. 19—How to Become an Education Activist in Northeast Ohio
  • Oct. 7—Housing Crisis in Northeast Ohio—Where Are We in 2015?
