Respect and Social Inclusion
Everyone wants to feel valued. Intergenerational gatherings and activities are a great way for young and older people to learn from one another, honor what each has to offer and, at the same time, feel good about themselves.
Our involvement:
Clothing drive for unhoused refugees with the town, Tru, Third Street Center, Methodist and other churches
One Town/One Table
Human Library
The Human Library Project
What is the Human Library?
It is a live discussion between human “books” and readers. It provides opportunity for readers to have a dialogue with people who may hold different perspectives.
The Human Library® creates a safe space for dialogue where topics are discussed openly between our human books and their readers.
