Each year, NH Listens hosts events throughout New Hampshire. These online and in person events range from engaging on statewide policy issues, supporting local community-led initiatives, and our own series of workshops for strengthening skills for bridge builders — facilitation, connection across differences, and sticking with tough conversations. We support a growing network of New Hampshire's skilled facilitators.
We are grateful to the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation for their generous support.

Local Civic Health
A Guide to Building Community and Briding Divides
Tuesday, march 14, 12 -12:30 pm
In the same way that doctors conduct an annual check-up to assess our health, we can collect information to assess the civic health of our communities. Civic health includes factors such as how much people trust each other, show up at public meetings, get involved, vote, and help out neighbors. The Carsey School has designed a guide to help people at the local level collect data to better understand what factors bring people together or push them apart. This information can ehlp communities to thrive and strengthen democracy at the local level. Come learn about our 7-part guide including exercises around mapping the different populations in your community, evaluating how local spaces build or discourage community, building equity inot local engagement processes, and collecting and analyzing data about civic health; including surveys, dialogues, interviews, and civic photojournalism. Please join us in the virtual launch of this new guide on March 14 from 12 to 12:30 pm.
