Bethany Legacy Foundation

What does the ‘common good’ actually mean for Jefferson County, Indiana?

On Thursday, September 17, we're bringing our community together to ask that question out loud.

Bethany Legacy Foundation is partnering with Capita (a national think tank) to host a public town hall — two hours, one open conversation — about the loneliness, anxiety, and polarization so many of our neighbors are feeling, and what it would look like to put families and neighborhoods first again.

This isn't a panel you watch. It's a conversation you're part of. Elected officials, civic leaders, partners from various sectors (such as education, arts, nonprofits, employers, the faith community, retail, law enforcement), and you — Jefferson County citizens — sitting alongside each other to ask hard questions and imagine new possibilities together.

📅 Thursday, September 17, 2026 | 4–6 PM
📍 Fairfield Inn & Suites Madison, 108 St Michaels Ave, Madison, IN 47250

Free and open to the public. More details to come. Save the date.
