Conversations for the Common Good

Presented by WVIA and Bloomsburg University
Conversations for the Common Good is an interdisciplinary, university and community-wide movement linking Bloomsburg University students, staff, faculty, and administrators, plus community partners and the general public in a single goal: to invest time, talent, and resources to promote dialogue that unites, and bridges seemingly vast divides, within the community it serves.

Other panelists joining Ms. Lithwick are Orlando Valle, Jr., MD, a Geisinger Medical Center OB-GYN specialist, and Willow Eby-Fischer, a nurse from Northumberland with long experience in reproductive health care.
