  23. In Summary We’re over a year into the program and are addressing many of the Transition Team’s recommendations. We continue to support the CPO program as a valuable part of the County’s overall public involvement efforts. We are in the process of creating a program to increase engagement capacity of our historically under represented communities. We remain on the lookout for best practices to support staff across the county in an effort to expand involvement. And we will continue our efforts to identify, select, and implement new tools to enhance community engagement .
