What this bill would do

The Building Civic Bridges Act proposes to amend the National and Community Service Act of 1990. It seeks to establish an Office of Civic Bridgebuilding within the Corporation for National and Community Service. This new Office would be headed by an Officer of Civic Bridgebuilding designated by the Chief Executive Officer. The Office would be responsible for administering a pilot grant program, providing training, and supporting research on civic bridgebuilding. Additionally, the Office would work to activate public conversation and facilitate collaboration between various entities. The goal is to support activities that foster respect, social cohesion, and address public concerns.
