1ST THURSDAY OF THE MONTH FROM 7:30 – 8:45 PM
Join us for conversations on racial equity
How can we come together to make Stratford stronger and healthier for all? Join CARE for a series of Zoom conversations led by trained facilitators from Raising the BAR, a program of The Council of Churches of Greater Bridgeport. Learn from thought-provoking videos, articles and podcasts how racism has shaped our environment. Then work in small groups to discuss ways we can unite to take action, heal divides and make a difference…right here at home.

Stratford Citizens Addressing Racial Equity (CARE)
As a town-sponsored citizen coalition, we work to make Stratford stronger and more inclusive by fostering racial equity in education, leadership and policing. For over 10 years, our CARE Action Teams have partnered to build relationships, identify opportunities and bring people together for open dialogue.
