Breaking Barriers: Reconnecting America

In a time of growing divides, many Americans are asking how we can connect across our differences to build a stronger, more resilient society. While connection and collaboration can take many forms, the question remains: how can individuals, communities, and institutions contribute to a healthier civic culture?

At this meeting, we’ll explore:

  • What does it take to work through differences and strengthen connections?
  • What do you see as the biggest challenges to bridging divides?
  • What approaches or mindsets do you think help foster understanding?
  • Can you share a time when you connected with someone despite differences? What made it possible?
  • How can individuals or communities take small steps toward stronger relationships across divides?

This is an opportunity to hear diverse perspectives, share experiences, and explore practical ideas for fostering understanding and collaboration in our communities and beyond.

Please do your best to arrive at the beginning of the meeting – once we are in breakout rooms and the conversations have started, the meeting doors close to new arrivals. The breakout rooms open (and the doors close) approximately 15 minutes after the hour.
