The Prosperity Now Community Steering Committee (CSC) has three open seats we hope to fill by March 2019. As such we are looking for your nominations for leaders in the field to join the CSC. The CSC provide advice on the structure, offerings and overall direction of the Community. The Steering Committee provides end users of Prosperity Now resources and state/local leaders in the Community a channel for voicing their needs, experiences and concerns, as well as an opportunity to help shape the direction of this national network.
