Hello Open Government Community,
As you may know, the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has been working to develop a Federal framework for public participation and community engagement over the past year. Based on the feedback shared by the public and agencies (including many of you – thank you!), OMB has just released draft guidance and the draft outline of a toolkit to help Federal agencies more broadly and meaningfully engage with the public.
OMB is now seeking feedback from the public on these draft materials by Friday, November 29. Please visit www.performance.gov/participation to:
Review the full text of these draft documents;
Provide written feedback through a simple form; and
Register for listening sessions on November 13th and November 20th. ASL interpretation, live captioning, and live audio translation in Spanish and Mandarin Chinese will be provided.
Note: The Secretariat is also coordinating an additional listening session for the Open Government community and we’ll share the event information soon.
More details below and in this blog post from OMB. Your input will help shape the final guidance and toolkit from OMB. Please share this request with colleagues and others, including those who may be familiar with effective outreach to underserved communities.
Sincerely,
