Event Details
Conversations in Newton can get… complicated. Whether the topic is school budgets, village identity, or parking policy, our public discussions can sometimes become more combative than constructive.
We believe there’s a better way for us to work together. Please join us for a constructive dialogue with neighbors interested in exploring the following topic:
Personal and community investment in education
This dialogue brings together community members with different points of view on how Newton invests in the education of young people. The purpose is for folks to speak to be understood, to listen to understand, and to deepen curiosity about perspectives (of your own and others) -- on a concrete issue that affects us all.
What is Newton Conversations?
We are a group of Newton residents, City staff, and elected officials who came together around a shared vision: Newton Conversations envision a city where civil discourse thrives, and diverse perspectives are respected with open minds and thoughtful engagement.
Together, we'll co-create a space for reflection, honesty, and mutual respect. Our hope is that you walk away with the sense that respectful conversation is still possible — and essential — in Newton.
Have questions? Please reach out to Demie Stathoplos at dstathoplos@gmail.com
Sincerely,
