Citizens Government Academy Application

UPDATE (8/16/2021) Due to rising numbers of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, this program has been cancelled. City leaders hope to reschedule it again in the future. 

If you want to know more about your local government and how decisions are made that affect our city, please join us for the City of Dalton’s Citizens Government Academy 2021. Over the course of nine sessions on Tuesday nights this fall, this program will give you an up-close look at every aspect of the city’s operations including public safety, public works, parks and recreation, and more. 

In 2021, we are planning to return to the full version of the Citizens Government Academy with tours of various City facilities and on-site presentations from City leaders and employees. In 2020, those tours were put on hold to allow for greater social distancing and safety measures in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

You’ll learn how the city’s government works, meet the people who run the city’s departments, and gain a greater understanding of how the employees of the City of Dalton are working to make this a great place to work and live.
