Let’s Talk! workshops are designed specifically for Piedmonters to engage in an enriching community dialogue: to listen, learn, and understand one another better, respectfully. These workshops will be led by Sara Wicht, a trainer and consultant who developed and now implements Southern Poverty Law Center’s Teaching Tolerance curriculum. Free and open to everyone, we hope you can join the conversation.

Who should attend? Everyone, including your middle- and high-school kids. Sessions I and II have different content, and are both offered multiple times with the hope that more people can attend.

  • Reflect on how our identities influence our opinions, relationships, and interactions in daily exchange
