We want to hear from you – your experiences, your stories, your triumphs – to help chart our path. Join The San Francisco Foundation for a half-day discussion on the issues that most deeply impact your communities in San Mateo County.
VOICE: San Mateo County is part of a larger listening series taking place across the five Bay Area Counties, hosted by The San Francisco Foundation’s new CEO, Fred Blackwell, and his team to hear firsthand about the daily struggles, challenges, inspirations, and successes of residents as we move into the next decade of our work.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
The event will kick off with a welcome and short introduction by The San Francisco Foundation’s CEO, Fred Blackwell. Following his brief remarks, we will discuss the topics of the day using the World Cafe method. This format brings participants together in groups of four to five for meaningful conversations around a specific set of questions, and participants’ deep understanding of the issues facing the community, as well as creative thinking about how to address them. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with many other attendees as part of the Café, both in small group conversations and as a whole. A Café conversation is a creative process for leading collaborative dialogue, ensuring that everyone’s voice is part of the conversation.
