Bridging 23

Bridging US 23 is an initiative developed by The Dispute Resolution Center in collaboration with The Association for Youth Empowerment (AYE) . It is dedicated to transforming the way the people of Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti and the surrounding counties relate to one another. Bridging US 23 was founded on the belief that when people unite for the greater good, positive change is inevitable. Our ultimate goal is to connect communities, inspire compassion and take action to call forth the beloved community.

A central component of Bridging 23 is peacemaking circles facilitated by the DRC's trained circle keepers. These facilitated conversations are a way for community members from opposite sides of the county to connect, network, and work together to build relationships that will foster social change. Some topics we will be covering are; what does it mean to be in community, how can we build connections, and gratitude.

Everyone is welcome to participate in these important conversations, sign up to participate below!
