Our Mission
The mission of the Governors’ Institute on Community Design is to assist governors and their cabinets and staffs as they seek to guide growth and development in their states. A central goal of the Institute is to give governors practical solutions to the issues they face and a better understanding of how community design can be used to increase the social and economic well being of their states and citizens.
The
Governors’ Institute recognizes that the every state faces a distinct
set of opportunities and challenges. By developing targeted workshops
for individual governors, their cabinets and staff, the Institute is
able to address each governor’s particular priorities. Governors’
Institute workshops bring nationally renowned experts together with one
governor, his or her cabinet and staff for an intensive one to two day
working session on a topic chosen in advance by the host governor.
