The PACT will carry on the mission and values of JCCI to ensure citizens the opportunity to engage on key issues affecting their quality of life.
The PACT is an opportunity to work together to ensure that these values are consistently promoted to improve the quality of life in Jacksonville and Northeast Florida.
These shared values will foster a continued culture of civic engagement:
Civic engagement is critical for a democracy to function and to build consensus on key issues for our community.
Conveners of citizens for the purpose of improving our quality of life must be neutral and nonpartisan to ensure every citizen has a voice.
Advocacy is critical to create change and people need access to training and education on how to become advocates.
Jacksonville is a diverse community and all processes to determine priorities for action will be fully inclusive.
Collaboration is the most efficient and effective way to achieve progress on systemic issues affecting our quality of life.
The tracking of key indicators measuring the quality of life is vital to help understand where progress is being made and what issues need additional help and resources.
