Braunginn sees this partnership with CPI and the City of Madison as a magical combination that will create excitement throughout the community. With Steve Levine s experience as the founder of the local dialogue process Building Bridges, Mona s expertise in implementing complex projects, and the City s resources and determination to see this through, I firmly believe that we have an opportunity to set a strong positive course for our community as we begin the century. Mayor Bauman applauded the partnership approach the agencies have undertaken. For Study Circles to succeed, everyone needs to feel welcome, or they won t get involved. Study Circles have the power to transform peoples attitudes.
Participation can change negative attitudes into positive ones at very fundamental levels.
Study Circles on Race are an opportunity for the entire community to learn more about itself, who we are, and how we can make Madison even better by appreciating the diversity that enriches us.
