The Better Government Association writes:

"This month we are launching an exciting new program, the Citizen Watchdog Training Project. In a series of free sessions, we will train citizens to monitor government in their communities, publicize what they find, and advocate for change that improves government. Veteran investigative journalists, political reporters and legal experts will train watchdogs to identify stories, research and analyze government reports, develop sources and report on their findings in all areas of government. We'll also take it a step further and teach watchdogs how to advocate for change and demand good government.

The Better Government Association (BGA) is an independent, non-partisan watchdog group committed to improving government. With hard-hitting investigations and timely litigation the BGA exposes government corruption, waste and mismanagement. We promote effective public policy and engage citizens to advocate for a transparent, accountable and honest government."
