Many ways to participate in your community!
 
Community members are the City's greatest asset and government works most effectively when it works with its community. Here are several ways you can get involved to help make Fulshear a safe and vibrant city.

Volunteer

Getting involved as a volunteer in your community gives you an opportunity to help solve problems, make important social connections, and see your community as a living whole in which you are a vital participant.

Serve on a Board or Commission

 The Mayor and City Council are very interested in you serving as a member of a City of Fulshear Board or Commission. As an interested citizen and community leader, you can provide invaluable service to the City of Dallas through your membership and participation.

Keep Fulshear Beautiful
Keep Fulshear Beautiful is a community organized, family-friendly, group of volunteers that want to see the community thrive. The goal is to keep our city clean and have it looking its best. Keep Fulshear Beautiful clean ups will be held bi-annually; once in the November and once in April.

The city is a sponsor of this initiative. If you are interested in participating in the beautification of Fulshear, please contact Forever Fulshear at (713) 703-4129.
Fulshear Academy For Civic Training & Service 

F.A.C.T.S. leaders are citizen ambassadors, civic leaders and community stewards. This program is designed to:

  1. Provide an avenue for residents to help plan the community's future.
  2. Spark an interest in local issues.
  3. Present information about important questions facing the City.
  4. Develop a pool of informed residents willing to serve as local leaders on boards, commissions and among their neighbors. 

In addition to guest speakers, class sessions feature group discussions, activities, field trips and other topic-related exercises. During the course of the leadership program, participants interact with members of City Council, City staff, local business leaders, neighbors and community members. Participants learn how local government works, how decisions are made, and develop their leadership skills via on-site exercises, practice presentations and peer-to-peer networking.

Citizens Police Academy
The Citizens Police Academy builds stronger connections between our community and the Fulshear Police Department by providing residents with a firsthand understanding of the daily responsibilities and challenges of law enforcement. Over the course of the program, participants explored topics such as patrol procedures, investigative techniques, community policing, emergency response, trust-building, and an interactive session with our K-9 unit to learn about the critical role of police K-9s in law enforcement operations.
