JAMS ADR Blog by Chris Poole
In this podcast, JAMS neutral Michael Lewis; Carl Smallwood, executive director of the Divided Community Project; and Nancy Rogers, who serves on the Divided Community Project’s Executive Committee, discuss the origins of the project and the path to developing resources for local leaders and community members to achieve change and tackle divisive issues impacting their communities.
The conversation touches on how funding from JAMS has aided in their ability to expand project capabilities; how they have strategically focused on areas that may yield the greatest impact for communities, including community mediation, student youth initiatives and the Weinstein JAMS International Fellowship Program; and how they are addressing societal issues.
