Bay Area residents face a number of tough, critical, decisions about the course our future should take. The choices we make, or fail to make, will affect the health and prosperity of the region and its inhabitants well into the next century. To engage the greatest number of residents, and to ensure they are informed about the trade-offs and consequences of their decisions, the Association of Bay Area Governments will mount a major educational campaign over the next two years. That campaign will take the form of conferences, video programs, special reports, editorials, and town hall meetings. Pick battles big enough to matter, small enough to win. Jonathon Kozol, Author
