Hurricane Harvey brought historic challenges to Houston. Compassionate responses from so many revealed our city’s courage, unwavering kindness, and prevailing strength. How can we continue to rise together as a deeply compassionate city, both for those still impacted by Harvey and beyond?
Our Speaker: Dr. Jill Carroll, PhD

She has published numerous books and articles on world religions, interfaith relations, and public life.

Experience her compelling insights into how our city’s diversity of faith perspectives and backgrounds led Houstonians and others to rise together and respond with universal compassion in Harvey’s wake.

Let's keep the compassion flowing and keep Houston Strong.
