On August 11, 2018, National Day of Civic Hacking (NDoCH) will convene community members across the country to host a nationwide day of action. This day of action brings together civic leaders to work with local governments to tackle some our toughest challenges.

This week, over 30 Brigade members and leaders came together to discuss their plans for the 2018 National Day of Civic Hacking; the theme for this year is Government By the People.
