KPBS One Small Step Experience Event

Join us for the first KPBS One Small Step Experience Event!

KPBS presents One Small Step in partnership with StoryCorps. This initiative brings people with different beliefs and backgrounds together for a conversation - not about politics - but to get to know each other as people.

The KPBS One Small Step Experience event will feature a respectful conversation between our special guests from San Diego’s business and labor community followed by audience table conversations where you can discuss and share your own viewpoints.
