Join us for an enlightening evening dedicated to exploring the vital role of civic engagement in our lives and communities. We will examine how active participation in organizations enhances societal well-being and individual health. Remarkably, research suggests that joining just one group can reduce your risk of mortality by half in the coming year.
The event will commence with a condensed screening of the 2023 documentary “Join or Die,” which delves into the decline of social capital in America and underscores the importance of community connections. Following the screening, The Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg will facilitate small-group discussions, providing a platform to reflect on the film’s themes and share personal insights.
To conclude, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with and join a diverse array of organizations spanning sectors such as civic engagement, advocacy, sports/activities, charity, environmental initiatives, and neighborhood associations. This event not only highlights the significance of uniting with others who share your passions but also empowers you to transform newfound understanding into meaningful action by becoming part of a group.
Don’t miss this chance to engage, discuss, and connect – strengthening both your community and personal well-being.
Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.
