“We believe that open and honest conversations have the ability to heal communities.”
Director Jennifer H. Gunter, PhD
A Bold Mission
The Collaborative was developed to foster racial reconciliation and civic renewal through on-going dialogues in classrooms, boardrooms and community rooms. The Collaborative’s work focuses on inclusiveness and the participation of individuals who are committed to exchanges of personal reflections about their lives and the desire to build bridges among participants and, in turn, to bring about real and lasting change.
How You Can Participate
Funding for the Collaborative is based on contributions from philanthropic, religious
and business communities and from private individuals.
