Building Bridges: A Playbook for Community Connection
Three Essential Steps
Create more opportunities for connection - Space must be intentionally created, like a garden, for relationships to take root and grow
Focus on shared goals - Americans prefer working together toward common community objectives rather than just discussing their differences
Build on success - Research shows that the more people connect across differences, the more likely they are to want to continue doing so
Pathways to Repair
Pathways to Repair offers a dynamic, accessible model for transforming division into dialogue. Through story-based engagements and facilitated discussions, they equip participants to engage with empathy and accountability across lines of difference—including political, racial, and generational divides. In a time of increasing polarization, their work helps build the social cohesion and trust needed to create resilient, equitable communities.
