With Guest Speaker, Liz Joyner - founder and president of The Village Square

Liz Joyner is the founder and president of The Village Square, a nonprofit dedicated to building civic trust between people who don't look or think alike in American hometowns. Named by former U.S. Senator Olympia Snowe as one of eight organizations nationally to support if you're concerned about building political common ground, The Village Square is seen by some thought-leaders as a model for the land — receiving the Statewide Impact Award from Leadership Florida and nominated for the Inaugural Civilution Award from the Bridge Alliance. David Blankenhorn of Braver Angels called Liz "likely the best organizer working in this area today."
