The Kennedy Forum Illinois is partnering with The Chicago Community Trust and Healing Illinois to encourage community members to engage in small conversations that build relationships and encourage action around mental health and racial equity to benefit the public good.

This initiative will continue through the end of March 2021 and it brings people together around a common purpose to listen to each other and learn from others’ experiences. These unprecedented and divisive times continue to challenge every one of us to see the humanity in each other.

Social distancing does not mean emotional isolation. Conversations, whether face-to-face or virtual, make significant impacts in educating others and eliminating discrimination. To that end, we have created materials specifically for those who wish to discuss your community’s experiences as it relates to mental health and racial equity. We hope that you will join us.
