Civity Blog -- Bridging Divides to Strengthen Communities

Post Date

Tuesday, April 14, 2020 - 12:00

Long Description

Civity.org offers training and hosts conversations around the U.S., providing opportunities for people to meet and connect with people different from themselves. "Going forward, the experience of connecting across and through difference becomes an intentional and integral part of working for stronger and more resilient communities." Civity also offers a set of podcasts and a blog/newsletter which share stories of those acting with a "Civity mindset." The Spring 2020 posts are focused on responding to each other in the time of Covid-19 and are very useful in that regard.
