The City of Peoria Speaker’s Bureau is about dedicated professionals being responsive to the information needs of our community. The city has representatives who are qualified to speak on topics for groups interested in learning more about their city and community.
About the Program The Peoria Speaker's Bureau gives community groups and organizations an opportunity to get in-depth information on specific topics, questions answered and concerns addressed. The speaker’s bureau is staffed by representatives from various departments who are considered the expert on specific topics of interest to the public. Upon request, a speaker can be scheduled to provide information to any community group. The Speaker’s Bureau can provide city representatives for community organizations, business groups, homeowner’s associations, church groups, and educational institutions to discuss city services and programs. School classes are encouraged to use the Speaker's Bureau for visits that enhance the educational process.
