7th Annual State of the Valley

Solving the Civility Crisis

Across the Wood River Valley — and the country — many of us are feeling the strain of rising polarization, diminished trust, and a growing inability to engage across differences. This year’s State of the Valley is designed to be a thoughtful, community-centered conversation about how we got here — and how we move forward together.

We are honored to welcome a diverse panel of local leaders, educators, advocates, and journalists who are deeply engaged in this work, including many of our past grantees:

• Ryan Redmond, Founder, Flourish Foundation
• Michelle Stennett, (D) Former State Senator for Blaine County
• Chenele Dixon, (R) Former State Representative for Southern Idaho; Founder, Idaho Solutions
• Pam Morris, Mountain Express Editor
• 2-3 Students from Wood River High School
