Harwood RSVP SLT and Placerville 2025

Harwood Catalyze and Connect Workshop

Bridging Divides - El Dorado, a local non-partisan, non-profit project whose mission is to strengthen communities through healthy conversation, invites you to participate in a bridging event with Rich Harwood, author of the new book, A New Civic Path - Restoring our Belief in One Another and Our Nation.

Please take a few moments to respond to a few questions below. Your input will help Mr. Hardwood address the unique challenges in your community.

Rich Harwood, founder of The Harwood Institute, will kick off the evening with a keynote address about communities across the country that are bridging divides and tackling shared challenges together. Roundtable dialogues will follow to provide an opportunity for participants to discuss challenges and opportunities to build new civic paths in their communities.
