What our members have to say
“GOC has the opportunity to proactively initiate a collaborative of these organizations and their leaders so that we can work smarter not harder: share lessons from each other, share successes and tools, and share events to benefit.”
“I see the GOC as the glue that can assist in building strong collaboration between diverse local and statewide organizations.”
“The GOC is a wonderful organization for connecting people and organizations who care about the community, the people in our community, the environment and for reminding us of the ways that ‘we’ are interdependent for our mutual health and well-being. ”
