Past Events:
On October 28, we will be doing a workshop at the Welles-Turner Library on Sizeism and Bullying. “Sizeism” is a relatively new term and it refers to a societal response to people’s physical size that often results in discrimination, misunderstandings, unequal treatment, ridicule, etc. We are planning an informative and thought-provoking event with a wonderful speaker, Nyaunu Stevens, Director of Programs for the National Conference for Community and Justice. She is a subject matter expert in Sociology of the Body, Fat Studies, and Race, Class, and Gender.
On November 17, at the Riverfront Community Center, we are doing a workshop on Homelessness. This problem, which affects nearly every community, including our town, has many different causes and our speakers, now being firmed up, will address these and what we can do about them.
Our Martin Luther King Birthday celebration is also being planned, with a tentative date of January 17, 2026.
