The divisiveness in our country is palpable. We all see it…feel it. Many of us have discussed politics among those with different views. Such attempts often lead to anger or, minimally, withdrawal or avoidance. Braver Angels is a national organization dedicated to bringing Americans together to bridge the partisan divide. It has a proven successful approach to engagement with those of other beliefs and opinions. This educational program will provide participants with knowledge, skills, and tools to have productive conversations across political divides.

Eric Ireland, Co-Chair of the Palmetto Alliance of Braver Angels (PABA) who has served in leadership positions in many non-profit and community organizations, and Erin Oeth, Co-Chair of PABA and professional in field of group facilitation with a focus on bridging divides, will lead the event.
