TownStory is a civic storytelling pilot focused on how towns remember themselves—and how those memories affect decision-making, trust, and participation.
Local governments and communities often face conflict not because people disagree about facts, but because shared history is fragmented, forgotten, or privately held. TownStory creates a structured but low-pressure way for residents to record and revisit lived experience connected to specific places, events, and moments of change.
TownStory does not aim to resolve disputes or determine outcomes. It provides context, not verdicts. Participation is voluntary, and stories are treated as lived accounts rather than evidence or argument.
