SUMMARY:Speaking Down Barriers' Community Dinner
DESCRIPTION:Speaking Down Barriers wanted to create and provide a space for people of all walks of life in our community to gather and collectively speak on things happening around us. Whether it be locally or across the globe\, there are many conflicts happening that find their ways into our discussions with family and friends. Some of the discussions are very challenging to have due to personal feelings\, impact or lack of information. It is our hope that those who attend can be brave and grieve the way they see fit while also being brave enough to be vulnerable and have these discussions amongst fellow members of our community.
