The Center for a Vital Community (CVC) will be hosting Community Conversations on April 13 and 14.  The subject of these conversations is a discussion about awareness and attitudes about mental health.

The session Tuesday, April 13 is from 5:30-7:00 p.m. and Wednesday, April 14 from 8:30-11:00 a.m. They will both be held via Zoom and pre-registration is necessary by signing up at www.sheridancvc.org.

“Community Conversations is a way to talk about tough subjects where everyone can contribute their thoughts and experiences in a safe and constructive environment, “CVC Director Amy Albrecht explained.

“We hope that when difficult or divisive issues come up in our community, we can discuss them using this process.  This is not about winning or blaming.  No matter who you are or what your experiences have been, this is about listening for understanding and being heard,” she added.

Community Conversations take place in groups of 6-8 people with a trained facilitator via Zoom.  Sessions are ninety minutes. 

Past Community Conversations subjects have included Being an Outsider, Affordable Housing, Public Lands, Wyoming’s Changing Economy, and Political Divisiveness.

All community members are invited to attend and asked to sign up in advance.

For more information, contact Julie Greer at the CVC, 307-675-0833.
