Public Conversations Project, begun in 1989, promotes constructive conversations and relationships among those who have differing values, world views, and positions related to divisive public issues. PCP has convened, conducted, and evaluated dialogues on abortion, the environment, sexual orientation and religion, social class, and population and women’s health. We have consulted on a wide range of issues and have shared the fruits of our learning through workshops and trainings, offered nationally and internationally, and publications in the popular press and scholarly journals. Currently PCP offers extensive dialogue guides on “Constructive Conversations about Challenging Times” with guides for both Community and Family dialogues.
