Unincorporated Miami-Dade is separate and isn't one of the 34 municipalities.

How It Works

Identify the municipality that you want to get involved with.

Key takeaway: You must be a resident of the municipality in order to be heard at the citizens’ forum. The forum is a devoted time-block for residents to make their concerns known at the commission meetings.

If you live in unincorporated Miami-Dade, you can still get involved at the county level.

The Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) meets twice a month.

Involvement

Pick one commission to follow.

Regularly attend commission meetings.

Get educated with the people and the process.

They’re human just like you.

Vocalize Your Thoughts

This is the most important part of the process, letting your voice be heard.

Starting a conversation can be the beginning of change.
