Join Greater Lafayette Indivisible. Do you have at least one person in your life that you avoid talking to about certain things?

If so, this interactive workshop might be for you. Together with a certified intercultural communications expert, you’ll learn how to build bridges, conversational and personal, across perceived differences around political values.

Suggested pre-meeting resources:
