The Citizen Advisory Councils (aka: CACs) were formed in 1973 to give citizens a voice in city government, to educate citizens about city government and to serve as advisory groups to the city council. There are 18 CACs geographically located throughout Raleigh. The CACs review issues of interest to their own community or neighborhood and express concerns to the City Council. The Raleigh Citizen Advisory Council (RCAC) is the overall body made up of the officers of each of the 18 community or neighborhood CACs. By virtue of their residency, every Raleigh citizen is a member of the CAC in their neighborhood or community.
