{{DISPLAYTITLE:What Role Can You Play with OTNA?}}
From Visitor to Initiative Leader to Sponsor there are a full range of ways to contribute your perspectives, concerns, and resources.


==== Introduction ====
= Roles =
Our first [[Industry Action Plan]] (IAP), VitalRail, supports stakeholders in making important improvements to specific industries in the name of economic and environmental long-term stability.  Through conversations and iterative IntelliConference Series, our Participating Stakeholders, staff organizers and facilitators drill into detailed dialogues to address the challenges, opportunities and breakthroughs.


One more important detail: if all we did was produce great white papers on these changes, that would not be enough. We maintain this site for stakeholders and staff to stay up-to-date via summaries and digests linked to deeper analysis.
