Uniting for Action: America
Strengthening our Country by Working Together Across our Divides

What is this program all about?
This is a NON-PARTISAN ONLINE initiative with four goals:

Build new connections and find commonalities across political, geographic, economic, and social (racial, ethnic, religious, sexual orientation, etc) divides
Increase understanding of different perspectives on key issues
Strengthen skills for collaborating across divides
Implement projects to strengthen our communities and our country

Who is this for?
Community members 18+ with wide-ranging views who are eager to improve their country. Examples of projects you might decide to implement:

Reducing food waste across communities
Working with local businesses to hire more formerly incarcerated individuals
Implementing a social media campaign to promote respect for different viewpoints
Conducting virtual workshops on constructive conversation across difference
Starting a community bail fund

How much effort is required?
We'll conduct virtual workshops on Zoom (see timeline below) for 90 minutes of structured discussion and small group collaboration on an issue you select. You and your team will design a project that you will implement -- you decide on the required effort and how you can each contribute.

What is the cost?
The program fee is $25, which supports the projects YOU IMPLEMENT and group moderators. Accessibility is important to us: no one will be denied the opportunity to participate because of an inability to pay the program fee.
