Braver Angels Plans Debate

The newly formed Braver Angels Lancaster County Alliance will host its first public event on Tuesday, May 25, at 7 p.m. This free, online debate will use the nationally recognized Braver Angels format to provide an exchange of ideas within a structured and respectful conversation. The topic will be "Resolved: Lancaster County Should Establish a Public Health Department."

Four Lancaster County residents will open the debate with four-minute responses to the topic, two affirming and two opposing the resolution. Each speaker will respond to two or three questions from attendees. Three-minute speeches by other event participants will then be welcome. Those speakers will also respond to questions.

Anyone who wants to participate can register by searching for "Debate: A Public Health Department for Lancaster County?" at http://www.eventbrite.com. Registration will close one hour prior to the scheduled start time. Registrants will receive the Zoom link for the event in the email confirming their registration.

Braver Angels is a national nonprofit working to depolarize America. The local alliance of Braver Angels, formed in January 2021, aims to protect and restore civic life in Lancaster County.
