A little about this initiative...
In order to counter the incivility that too often dominates our public discourse, the National Institute for Civil Discourse has launched the Initiative to Revive Civility, a national grassroots effort that highlights the need to change the tone of our current politics and suggests specific things that each individual can do to help make that happen. The Initiative to Revive Civility is conducting active programming around the country in the fall of 2017 and will continue to work in communities across the country throughout the 2018 election season.
The Initiative to Revive Civility invites Americans to take a personal pledge to model and promote civility and offer suggestions of what they can do to practice it in their community. The Initiative also provides program ideas and materials to help individuals take part in community conversations that bring together people of different political views so that they can listen to each other, build relationships and talk about ways to work together. Groups with ties in civic/political life, faith-based groups, businesses and young leaders from colleges and universities as well as concerned citizens are leading the way.
The Initiative to Revive Civility is sponsored by the NICD in partnership with many other national, state and local partner organizations.
