The National Issues Forums Institute is joining a broad coalition of civic organizations across the country as a hosting partner for the fifth annual National Week of Conversation, an opportunity for Americans to come together in a wide range of discussions about issues that impact the country, and the world. During the week of April 25, online National Issues Forums are being convened on voting and policing, and we are collaborating with National Conference on Citizenship about innovative ways civic practitioners are bringing people with diverse views together in deliberative discussions of public issues that impact our lives.
