Crossing Party Lines: Southern Oregon

Medford, OR

Civil, respectful conversation with people with different political views?

Yes, it is possible. We’re doing it and you can, too.

Crossing Party Lines is YOUR brave space to meet and talk with people you disagree with and may not even understand. You might have fun!

Our events include:

- DISCUSSIONS: We meet as small groups where you can talk to real people about the issues that divide us. Share your unique insights, encounter new perspectives and new ways of looking at the world, and experience what it's like to feel heard and understood.

You'll find that it is possible to disagree in a way that leaves you feeling true to yourself and your beliefs without losing your friends or your cool.

- WORKSHOPS: We teach the skills you need to effectively talk across differences. You will learn ways to foster curiosity and invite listening, acquire strategies for overcoming common communication barriers, and develop the confidence to talk politics with people you know, live, and work with.

- COMMUNITY EVENTS: We’re not just about talking – we’re also about community. We host game nights, screen videos, share books, and offer many other ways of connecting across differences.

At all events, trained facilitators set the tone of the discussion and help the group build trust. Come see what civil, respectful conversation is like. Who knows, you might make friends with someone you disagree with!

More about Crossing Party Lines:

We are a national nonprofit with chapters in eight states. Because we believe that the success of America’s unique democracy relies on the diversity of our viewpoints, we encourage people of all political views and parties to join and participate.

Come learn, explore, practice, and grow with us. Join this grassroots movement and become the change in your community.

Note: Due to COVID, most of our events are online. Unless otherwise stated, events are open to all Crossing Party Lines chapters, giving you a chance to interact with people from all over the country.

Medford Young Adult (18-28yrs) Community & Social Group

Medford, OR

**What's the purpose of this group?** The purpose of this group is to help re-build general community, and particular relationships after the disruption of the pandemic. Many of us have felt the pain of loneliness and feeling disconnected. It can be hard and nerve-wracking to try something new, or make new friends! That's the purpose of this group -- to be an intentional Young Adult (about 18-28 years old) community for people who want to connect again. The community guidelines are respecting eachother and keeping the group safe for honest connection and conversation. We build this community around joy in doing events, eating, and generally living life together. **Who should join?** Anyone who is roughly 18-28 years old (if you're 29, we won't kick you out) looking to both receive and invest in community and relationships. You don't have to be a social butterfly (I sure am not!), local, new in town, or be "all put together." We are naturally imperfect and quirky. We want to be a place where you can be your best self. The only requirement is that you be roughly in the age range, and respect the safety of the group. For example, alcohol can be present, and we also ask that people respect those who are in sobriety recovery, or below 21 years old. **What will we do at our events?** Right now, the events are a smaller group (5-12). We do various activities, depending on the season. For example: Axe Throwing, Bowling, Escape Room, Board Game Night, Ice Skating, Bonfires, Hikes, Backpacking, Murder Mystery Night, and the like. These events are once a month, often on a Saturday. But, feel free to take the initiative to swap numbers, ask people to grab coffee (or whichever) in between monthly events. Consider this larger group a springboard for developing closer relationships. Often at these events, tickets are at a discounted cost, funded by Westminster Church to help support re-building community, relationships, and healthy connections after the pandemic. While the events are subsidized by Westminster Church, this group is for people of all backgrounds. The heart behind this is seeing the need for community, and hoping to help serve the community by re-building human connectedness and belonging. Discounted payments are collected by Dereck, the group facilitator.
