What is the purpose of Live Well San Diego's online engagement?

    It is not always possible to attend a public meeting, open house, or other engagement event. With Engage Live Well San Diego, you can learn about and contribute to projects online. This lets you engage at a time and pace that is most convenient for you.

    Why do I have to register to provide my comments?

    Registration is not required to access the site and review project information. Registration is necessary for many of the more interactive engagement opportunities. We ask you to register on the site to attribute participation to individuals. This allows us to:

    • Ensure representation of a broader set of perspectives
    • Promote accountability
    • Encourage people to provide more thoughtful responses
    • Keep you updated on the projects that interest you

    Note: For Recognized Partners, registration is required to access the site. For Sector Engagement, registration is not required to access the site and review project information.

    Each project is unique. The options to review project information and provide your input and feedback may differ between projects. Project information may be provided in documents, presentations, or videos. You may participate in projects through discussion forums, quick polls, or surveys. 

    On this site, there is a brief video and one-pager that will guide you through the essential steps to effectively use our online engagement platform. 

    Note: Your comments will appear under your username. You can comment anonymously through a username of your choice.
