The Associations actively seek volunteers, on an ongoing basis, to participate on the Boards or Committees. Please call if you would like to get more involved in your community.

For a list of City Councillors appointed as liaisons to these groups see Community Association Liaisons.

For a list of non-profit organizations in our community see Community Organizations in the Discover Richmond section of this site.

Advisory Committees are another way to contribute input to recreation, culture and other City functions. For more information about Advisory Committees, see Advisory Committees: Get Involved in Local Government.
