Community Conversations 2017

This Community Conversation grows out of the Community in Unity festival, pictures of which you see here. Inspired by the vision of being a diverse community that works together for the common good, topics include supporting one another and our police, helping those in crisis, and working collaboratively for economic flourishing. We will explore how to engage together, both young and old, of multi-ethnicities, to create a culture that is good for the whole—and energizing all our citizens to do the same.
