Trust

May 17, 2026 at 10:30 amDr. Barbara Williams

In 2020, our former South Bend mayor declared the 2020’s would be a “DECIDING DECADE.”   That was based on how TRUST, which is basic to a well functioning democratic society, was eroding.  We will explore how it is eroding and some strategies to restore it.
