The 4 Legs of the Table
1 - CONNECTION - Add these special months to your calendar and spread the word:
April is UNITY MONTH - Invite a neighbor over to share a meal.
October is NEIGHBORS MONTH - Host a Block Party or a Cookout with 2 or 3 neighbors.
2 - CARE - Let 2 or 3 neighbors know that you are available if they need anything, especially in the event of a personal or community crisis. “If you need me, let me know.”
3 - COMMON GROUND - Look for common ground and stand on common sense values.
4 - CIVILITY - Commit to civility in politics by practicing healthy dialogue, avoiding unnecessary name-calling, and focusing on solutions.

*THE RIGHT TO PERSONAL OPINIONS
THE DREAM:
RESILIENT COMMUNITIES & BEAUTIFUL CITIES
WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER. EFFECTIVE, LONG-TERM SOLUTIONS TO OUR GREATEST CHALLENGES FALL SHORT WHEN DIVISIVE NARRATIVES PREVAIL.
CRIMES, ABUSE, AND MISCONDUCT THRIVE IN A DISCONNECTED AND ISOLATED SOCIETY - KNOWING YOUR NEIGHBORS LESSENS THE OPPORTUNITY FOR CHILDREN AND THE VULNERABLE TO BE IN HARMS WAY.
THE GREATEST FORM OF RELATIONAL SUPPORT IS THE FAMILY UNIT. HEALTHY INTERPERSONAL AND INTERGENERATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS HELP FOSTER STRONG, RESILIENT COMMUNITIES.
IT IS DIFFICULT FOR THE BEST LEADERS AND CANDIDATES TO BE EFFECTIVE IN A TOXIC AND DIVIDED POLITICAL SYSTEM THAT DOES NOT HONOR SHARED VALUES. WITH GREATER COMMUNITY EXPECTATIONS AROUND CIVILITY AND COOPERATION, WE BELIEVE LEADERS WILL HAVE A GREATER CAPACITY TO HEAR THE BEST IDEAS AND DISCOVER THE BEST SOLUTIONS FOR THE GOOD OF EVERYONE.
BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER ELECTIONS, COMMUNITIES WILL EITHER THRIVE OR STRUGGLE DEPENDING ON OUR PERSONAL COMMITMENTS TO CIVILITY AND TO ONE ANOTHER.
HAVING STRONG CONVICTIONS IS NOT IN CONFLICT WITH PRACTICING THE ART OF LISTENING. THE NEIGHBORS PARTY ENCOURAGES RESEARCH, QUESTIONS, CURIOSITY, AND OPINIONS, BALANCED WITH RESPECT FOR OTHERS. Together, we are the DREAM!!!
JOIN TODAY! INVITE YOUR NEIGHBORS, COWORKERS, CLASSMATES, FRIENDS, AND FAMILY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE RIGHT WHERE YOU LIVE!! HOPE IS A TABLE!!
WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR
