The Bridge to Civility 2.0: Continuing the Conversation

Wednesday September 18, 2024 11:00am - 12:00pm CDT

Our work is based on grounded theory. We continue to observe many examples of disrespect as the norm of behavior. We need to shift direction from disrespect to civility. Through guiding questions, discussions, and experiences of the participants, we will expand our model. The intent is to expand the civility model frame through participants’ perspectives.
