UPDATE: The City of West Sacramento has just announced the launch of its free 2026 Community Academy, set to empower residents with crucial insights into local government operations. This educational program kicks off in March 2026, and applications are now open as of January 2.
This seven-session initiative aims to demystify municipal services and foster deeper community engagement among residents. Participants will gain firsthand knowledge of city infrastructure and operations through interactive presentations, including vital briefings from the Police Department and Fire Department.
City officials emphasize that the academy is designed to enhance transparency and civic participation. By attending, residents will better understand the roles and responsibilities of various departments, including critical insights from the City Clerk’s office.
Past participants have reported feeling empowered, with many going on to advocate for city programs or even joining advisory commissions. “We want our residents to become informed, engaged citizens who understand how local government functions,” said a city representative.
Residents of West Sacramento can apply for the 2026 Community Academy through the official city website at www.cityofwestsacramento.org. This is a unique opportunity for locals to interact with city leaders and gain valuable knowledge about their community.
As the program approaches, city officials urge residents to act quickly due to limited spots. This initiative is not just about education; it’s about cultivating a more active and informed citizenry that can contribute to the future of West Sacramento.
