Community Chats
An open forum discussion open to the community on rotating social justice topics.
We recognize that our community's health is interconnected with all aspects of life, and we hope these conversations will provide a look at the bigger picture and how all our work is connected. These chats will be an open forum for community members to discuss that month's topic with one another and with a member of Neighborcare's program staff to learn how the topic connects to our work.
Prior to each chat we will send out a variety of resources to read, listen to or watch as well as a few questions to ponder and get the conversation started. This event is open to all, and we encourage all levels of comfortability around the topic to join.
A BIG THANK YOU to the Emily Program's Anne, Katie, and Lexus for co-facilitating July's Community Chat! We are so grateful for the work you are doing in the community and look forward to continuing spreading the word of the Emily Program's services and impact!
