Citizens from diverse backgrounds cooperating to promote informed discussion of issues important to the community.
Our primary activity is to provide a regular non-partisan forum for local citizens to explore topics of interest and importance to us all. We intend programs to enlighten and to advance thoughtful deliberation (and occasionally, to entertain us). Program focus can be local, regional, or broader.
We intentionally do not duplicate or participate in fund-raising and volunteer programs that are so effectively delivered by other community organizations.
