A community-building initiative by the United Way that was postponed last month has been rescheduled. United Way of Northern California is launching an initiative called “Building Bridges” to promote civil discourse in an increasingly divided world. The goal is find common ground by choosing to listen, learn from our differences and focus on shared goals. To help the effort get rolling, Rich Harwood, founder of the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation, is set for a speaking engagement on Tuesday, October 29th at 5:30PM at Mercy Oaks off College View Drive in North Redding. It’s free of charge, but pre-registration is required at norcalunited.co/buildingbridgesshasta.
