By using a Town Hall Meeting/Hearing format, individuals attending this program will be encouraged to engage in open discussion about these issues especially as they affect individual people’s lives and the nation as a whole. Particular attention will be directed to: [a] identifying what interventions are currently being implemented to effectively address these issues in the participant’s communities and [b] what can be done to address issues related to race, justice, and peace in the future.
