Action Groups
The Action Groups are designed to research and communicate information regarding what actions might be necessary going forward. We are asking members from all the political groups in the Sedona/Verde Valley to join an Action Group by contacting one of the group leaders. Contributing your ideas and volunteering will help them as they formulate and carry out their goals.
