PCC hosts National Issues Forum
PCC’s Public Policy Institute will be conducting a National Issues Forum (NIF) on the topic of freedom of expression. The forum will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. on Thursday, April 6 in Conference Room B at Sylvania.
The NIF model promotes public deliberation on critical issues. The forums are different from everyday conversations, or adversarial debates in that participants engage in deliberation of three or four choices framed around the issue. The forums present each issue in a neutral, nonpartisan way that encourages people to take a fresh look at the topic and at their own, and other individuals’ convictions.
To attend the forum, contact Neal Naigus, community relations manager, at 503-977-4122.
