About this Event

What are your hopes and concerns for your community? What are the most important issues in your community right now?

The Boston Public Library (BPL) is teaming up with the Local Voices Network (LVN) and local media partners for a project that seeks to record neighborhood conversations on important local topics. These recordings will be shared on a searchable website for journalists, decision-makers, and other local stakeholders to tune into the community’s real concerns.

We need the participation of local community members to make this a success.

Here's how it works:

You'll learn about how LVN works, get to see our digital Hearth, and participate - if you want - in a demo to learn more about how you can get involved as a participant, a host/facilitator, or an organizational partner.

Want to get more involved?

Check out our facilitator training on December 14th at the Jamaica Plain Branch of the Boston Public Library or join our first community conversation in Egleston on December 18th.

Together, we'll create a platform where everyone is invited to be heard.

Space is limited. RSVPs are necessary for this program. Refreshments will be served.
