The founder of UNITE, Dr. Tim Shriver, spoke at the Herbert Public Policy Forum at Utah Valley University. “Whether we agree on every issue,” he said, “we can find ways to be creative on every difference.” He believes the number one problem we face today – and there are many – is the crisis of trust and meaning between us, which, as we’ve seen, leads to hatred, contempt and demonizing. “Will the uniter prevail?,” he asked. “Or will the divider prevail?”

 

Speakers:

  • Dr. Tim Shriver, President/CEO, Special Olympics, Founder, UNITE
