LEWISTON — Mark E. Hews, state cooridinator for Maine Revives Civility, will be guest speaker at the L-A Metro Chamber Thursday, May 10, breakfast.
The event is 7 a.m. at Kora Shrine Center, 11 Sabattus St.
Hews, president of M. E. Hews and Company LLC, of Poland, will speak on “Promoting Civility and Respect — Pledge, Engage, Organize.”
Maine Revives Civility is a grassroots initiative committed to helping foster an open exchange of ideas and expression of values leading to better problem-solving, more effective government, and inclusive and engaged communities. Maine Revives Civility is organized around three core strategies — pledge, engage and organize.
MRC is asking people to make a personal commitment to improve civility and respect in their own lives, engage elected officials and community leaders to do the same and organize one of four conversation types in their communities. This creates an effective framework to address self-identified community issues.
Maine Revives Civility is a project of the National Institute of Civil Discourse.

Cost of the breakfast is $20 for members and $30 for non-members. Registration is available at www.LAMetroChamber.com.
