Mark your calendars! The annual National Week Of Conversation will be from April 17th-23rd! This week-long event will feature hundreds of opportunities for people to engage in conversation with one another, both online and in-person, across a range of topic areas. "Experts around the globe endorse guided, face-to-face conversation across differences as one of the most powerful tools available to remove the biases, stereotypes, and misperceptions before they have the opportunity to rip societies apart. By engaging 1:1 and in small groups, we remind ourselves that the “other” is – just like us – a person with family, friends, hopes, fears, values, and worth."
