Members of the It Gets Better touring company will facilitate the session.<\/p>\n<p>World Caf\u00e9 conversations allow diverse groups an opportunity to share ideas and experiences toward a better understanding of LGBT issues within a community. As the conversation progresses, participants move toward visioning about future possibilities.<\/p>\n<p>Participants will include a variety of individuals from across our community, such as civic leaders, educators, students, members of law enforcement, university leaders, business owners, clergy, artists, social service providers, LGBT leaders, and other interested stakeholders. If you know of someone who would provide meaningful contributions to our discussion, please let us know.<\/p>\n<p>The session will last approximately 2 hours and will include an informal lunch. Rather than being an observer, you will participate in discussion for much of that time. While there are no ongoing expectations from participants, we hope that those who attend are open to continuing dialogue and\/or work in this area if meaningful ideas emerge from the session.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please RSVP to Cindy Konrad Cindy Konrad at <a href=\"mailto:konradc@uww.edu\">konradc@uww.edu<\/a> or at 472-7169, LGBT Coordinator at UW-Whitewater by Monday, Nov. 4 at 5pm<\/strong>.
