This Listening Session is an opportunity for west central Minnesotans from different backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints to speak honestly about what matters to them and to listen to others. In this structured conversation, we will explore what actions we could take together to strengthen civic trust and solve challenges for the common good. Perhaps, even in a divided time, we can see what we share and leave the tiresome outrage and unhealthy division behind.
Hosted by the West Central Initiative, this Listening Session is part of a multi-year statewide campaign aimed at combatting unhealthy divisiveness in Minnesota organized by Braver Angels Minnesota, Civic Bridgers and Common Ground USA. The campaign is funded by a group of Minnesota foundations.
