June 18, 2025 | 1:00-2:00PM ET
In today’s polarized political climate, curiosity isn’t just a virtue – it’s a tool for bridging divides and rebuilding trust. Braver Angels is one organization working to restore trust across ideological, cultural, and professional differences, including within the complex landscape of health care. During this webinar, Bill Doherty, PhD, co-founder of Braver Angels, and Tara Montgomery, founder of Civic Health Partners, will join us for a conversation on navigating the challenges of health care delivery in a climate of skepticism and mistrust. Together we’ll explore how health care professionals can navigate polarization, stay rooted in their values, rebuild trust with patients, and champion health as a shared public good.
