At a time when many Americans are struggling with affordability and feeling divided from their neighbors, The Table creates caring spaces for honest conversations about economic concerns that lead people to consider individual and collective actions towards economies of care.
The Table gives hosts and facilitators an outline for hosting a shared meal. Each dinner brings people together over food, a creative offering and guided conversation, with prompts that invite guests to share the economic concerns we all face in our daily lives. Every part of the evening, from the invitation to the meal to the questions we explore, serves a common goal: helping people picture an economy of care and consider the individual and collective actions that could build it. Guests leave with deeper connections to one another and a “takeout menu” of actions they can bring home to strengthen economies of care where they live.
