ABOUT THE PODCAST
The Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls hosts the Uncomfortable Conversations Speaker Series.
The series is called uncomfortable conversations because these are not easy topics that have simple solutions. The series creates forums to help initiate conversations about topics that can affect our children, our families, our friends, and our communities. Each of the programs is designed to provide the opportunity to become aware of community issues, begin a discussion and sharing of information, and empower participants to take appropriate action.
