Community Conversations

[Kate McPherson]

Vancouver/ Clark County is rapidly growing into a collage of cul-de-sacs and strip malls. Residents, especially youth, lack a sense of community belonging. Community Conversations is designed to support high school students as they develop Civic Action Projects by enabling them to talk with youth and adults who can help them shape projects that are personally meaningful and valued by the community. Student facilitators will use the Conversation Café process to foster respectful and generative intergenerational discussions.
