Community Discussion – 9.8.21 – 7PM

What are the challenges and opportunities people are experiencing in Lincoln County? Would you like to hear from people in our community and normalize helping others no matter who they are or where they are from?

Let’s gather to listen, talk and share. Wednesday, September 8th at 7pm during a “Community Discussion” on Zoom. This is information sharing…

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

I believe we have the continued opportunity to empower each other by listening and sharing information. Perhaps, expecting or presuming “one person” has all the answers in unwise and unrealistic. Let’s leverage digital technology to serve us and connect us to one another.

The format is simple. Each person will have the opportunity to share if they choose to. If you have a challenge – tell the group what it is. If you are aware of an opportunity – share it with the group. Conversation topics are unlimited: Hiking, COVID, Mental Health, Housing, Gardening, Climate… It’s up to you.

The intention is to tap our collective wisdom during our gathering and share information that’s helpful and useful. Please keep this in mind: “Everyone you meet (during our gathering) is a human being who fears something, loves something, and has lost something. Remember this, respect this, and be extra kind.”

I will be moderating this discussion. Participants who demonstrate hate, bigotry, racism, bullying – will be removed from the online conversation.

Please join me and others to have an inclusive conversation. Looking forward to seeing you online!

Note, although I am an employee of Lincoln County Government this gathering is not a function of local government, nor does it necessarily represent the views of any organization that is not present in the discussion. Also, I am not a professional counselor, therapist, or medical doctor. – Casey

The Greater Newport Area Vision 2040 was developed with the guidance and collaboration of The Greater Newport Area Vision 2040 Advisory Committee, the Newport City Council, and the City of Newport staff, based on over a thousand comments and suggestions received from Greater Newport Area community members and visitors.
