About this Event
The Oxford Dictionary defines social capital as "the networks of relationships among people who live and work in a particular society, enabling that society to function effectively." National Humanities Medal recipient and renown Harvard University political and social scientist, Robert Putnam has been sounding the alarm as social capital declines within American society. As more Americans understand the reality of our social isolation crisis, media interest in revisiting Putnam’s work has grown and with it, momentum for a rebound where awareness and advocacy for volunteering and civic engagement are critical.
Please join us for a community screening of the documentary Join or Die — a film about why you should join a club — and why the fate of America depends on it - sponsored by the San Antonio Area Foundation’s SALSA (Successfully Aging and Living in San Antonio) initiative - hosted by Our Lady of the Lake University's Worden School of Social Service, Center for Service-Learning and Volunteerism, and the Student Government Association.
Limited seating for community members (must RSVP).
