The Vision

Discussion & Dialogue• Discussion in the dictionary is "a close
examination of a subject with interchange of opinions, sometimes using argument, in an effort to reach an agreement.
• Dialogue is "an interchange of ideas especially when open and frank and seeking mutual understanding." – It is a collective inquiry in which we suspend
opinions, share openly, and think creatively about difficult issues.
