Choose a Topic
What is my Civic Responsibility?
The messaging of the Idaho Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial challenges each visitor to examine their role in the community. Am I a bystander or upstander when I hear or witness injustice? Am I willing to commit to the core principles of diversity, inclusion, ethics, respect, and civility?
Conversations, Not Confrontations
Do you want to sharpen your mindset and skillset and have difficult conversations? Whether in your workplace, family, or community, we can all benefit from learning these important skills to manage difficult topics, heated emotions, and ultimately find common ground and constructive ways to move a conversation forward.
Human Rights as a Pathway to Belonging
Human rights are often an abstract concept. Join us to learn about the implications of not protecting human rights and how working to protect them can create stronger, thriving communities where everyone feels a sense of belonging.
