3CMA Webinar: Closing the Trust Gap: Research-Backed Communications Strategies

For four years running, one challenge has topped the list when local government leaders are asked what keeps them up at night: a breakdown of trust. It’s not just a feeling. Recent research backs it up, and it also points to exactly what moves the needle.
In this webinar, Liz Steward will share findings from a multi-city research initiative studying what actually drives resident trust in local government. The research identifies twelve indicators of trust and the ones that matter most. The role of communicators is key, as the data shows residents who feel informed about their local government report dramatically higher trust and confidence than those who don’t. Liz will walk through the framework, the data, and the practical takeaways local government communicators can put to use right away.
Lindsay Weisenauer will bring the research to life with a look inside the City of Dublin, Ohio, where resident trust consistently runs well above national benchmarks. Lindsay will share how Dublin puts these principles into action: multi-channel engagement, closing the feedback loop so residents can see their input shape real decisions, and building communication into the City’s culture rather than treating it as an afterthought.
Walk away with a research-backed framework for understanding trust, and real, replicable examples of how to build trust in your own community.
