An Indiana councilman saw politics turning toxic. Now he’s launching a national civility movement.
In Carmel, Indiana, a city councilman’s unease with the tone of local politics has grown into a national call for civility. After Jeff Worrell discovered a book on the subject that struck a chord, he launched Project Civility, a nonprofit dedicated to teaching communities how to “disagree better.” This weekend, leaders from 16 states gather in Carmel for the first Project Civility National Summit, where voices from across the spectrum will explore how respect, empathy, and common ground can reshape public life. Robyn Griggs Lawrence with SmartCitiesDive has the full story.
