This year, Vermont Public Radio is one of six stations hosting StoryCorps’ One Small Step Initiative, a community service designed to help bridge political divides and strengthen communities, one conversation at a time. These conversations are being recorded with StoryCorps through the end of this year and, with participants' approval, they will be archived at the Library of Congress with selected elements to be broadcast and posted online.
VPR hopes you will share this project with your networks and ask your friends, neighbors, and family to spread the word and apply to participate online. Everyone is welcome, but perspectives that reflect youth, minorities, and those with a conservative social or political point of view are of particular interest at this stage in the project.
