| Summary |
Better Together: A Jewish KC Conversation Project will be hosting sessions at Lawrence Jewish Community Congregation starting with the first session on Thursday, September 18th at 7:00 pm. Led by trained facilitators who are members of the Lawrence Jewish community, our first pop-up conversation will explore the balance between security and inclusivity—and the tension that can exist between these two vital community goals. Please register today so we can confirm there is sufficient interest to hold the event.
This first session is part of a series of Better Together pop-up conversations that will be offered across the community in the coming months. Each stand-alone gathering provides a chance to learn and practice dialogue skills—listening with curiosity, sharing openly, and navigating differences with respect. No previous experience necessary, we will ensure everyone feels supported and included.
We hope you will join us on September 18th. You may also email your interest to Tracie at Better Together at conversations@jcfkc.org, who is helping manage registrations.
