You are invited to attend a free webinar entitled, “The Road to CIVILITY: Implementing a Choose Civility Initiative”, on Friday, December 10, from 10 to 11 a.m. Central Time. Led by Howard County Library (MD), it is designed to enhance civility, respect, empathy, consideration, and tolerance. “Choose Civility” can be implemented for all age levels and may be used to address bullying and cyberbullying, so it is very timely.

 

“Choose Civility” evolved from an internal library campaign at the Howard County Library into a successful, ongoing, community-wide initiative. There are now nearly 100 partners and funders, including the public school system and community college. In this webinar, three key leaders will explore techniques to articulate a vision and mission, implement a “Choose Civility” Initiative, position the library as a lead partner, recruit and engage community partners, form a Board of Advisors, develop a public relations campaign, and create relevant curriculum for students of all ages.
