CCYP's Civic Engagement Field Guide

A working map of who's doing what across Cape Cod and the Islands.

Cape Cod and the Islands are in the middle of a generational transfer of civic infrastructure. Across nearly every sector, the institutions that hold this region together are looking for the next generation to step in.

The people positioned to do it -- year-round residents in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, returning Cape Codders, seasonal professionals with deep ties, seasoned contributors ready to invest in what comes next -- often have no map of the civic terrain.

This field guide is that map.

Inside, you'll find all the nonprofits shaping the region, organized by the work they do and the communities they serve and written for the people who are shaping what comes next.
