To date we have 17 guests coming . . . Thought you would want to know you are not alone in wanting the answers to single payer, insurance option and universal healthcare. What is the difference with all of the plans that you hear when you are driving . . . See you there, Leah

A network of grass-roots, issue based committees that tap our collective wisdom to address the crises we all face, one challenge at a time.

 

A time for Change

Democracy is not a spectator sport. This is a place where those with the passion to create our future can connect to others on issues they care about.

Step 1: Join this social network and post your profile.
Step 2: Join or create a group focused on an issue you are passionate about.
Step 3: Go to the next meeting of your Focus On Change Group.
Step 4: Report, post a blog or a picture, put the wisdom in the archive.
Step 5: Tell a friend to join.
Step 6: Repeat.

Using the communication tools of the web, we can begin to educate ourselves and advise our leaders about the direction we need to take. Our goal is to provide an accurate compass, using the collective wisdom of our communities, and document our progress, so that each step we take brings us closer to the world we want.
