Changing Louisiana through volunteerism and social entrepreneurship is a seminar that was developed by the office of Lt. Governor Mitch Landrieu, says the press release.

In Shreveport the seminar will unfold on Thurs, Sept 6, at the Shreveport Convention Center, 400 Caddo Street.

The program is open to the public and is a no-fee event. Seating is limited. Learn About: New Partnerships, Citizen Leadership
and Innovative Solutions.

Registration is Online and Easy, it says.

9 to 4. Lunch.

Here's a challenge from sptBlog for those of you who can attend the event: try to find a fellow-attendee to meet you there who's not from your ethnic group. One of the limiting factors of life in Shreveport is a lack of knowledge and awareness across the ethnic divide. If volunteers begin the day with a sense of trust and communication in this problematic area of local life, the seminar will be unusually successful.
