Join the Boston Public Library and Local Voices Network (LVN) for an online discussion about civic engagement.
There are three main purposes for this conversation: First, we want to create a new space for community members to listen and learn about each other’s lives. Second, we want to connect across groups and build our relationships with one another. Third, we want to create a unique listening channel through which we will lift up the voices and needs of the community to candidates, local policy makers, and members of the media.
To this end, we are inviting participants to have a different type of conversation. LVN conversations are focused on sharing our personal stories from our lived experience, rather than beginning the conversation with our positions on issues. We are doing this in order to help build connections and to foster conversations that improve our understanding of one another.
We kindly ask that people who are interested in attending register in advance at the following link: bit.ly/LVNBPL.
