Texas Forums, a program of the LBJ Library and Museum, was launched in 2002 to help give citizens a voice in decisions that affect their lives.

I am co-facilitating a pre-conference workshop the day before the 2008 NCDD conference begins in Austin. The workshop is entitled "Managing Difficult Conversations: An Introduction to Group Dialogue Processes."
Taylor ran a National Issues Forum event for conference participants and locals on the final day of the 2004 NCDD conference in Denver, Colorado. She has also served on NCDD's Steering Committee.
