EyeOnOshkosh - Rebuilding Together Fox Valley and the Oshkosh Civility Project are featured on this episode

On the most recent edition of Eye on Oshkosh, host Cheryl Hentz spends part of the hour with Chip Wood, executive director of Rebuilding Together Fox Valley. This is a nonprofit program designed to make, free of charge, critical and other safety repairs in homes owned by people who meet certain income requirements and nonprofits in the region. Learn more about the work this organization does and if you or someone you know qualifies.

In the second segment, Hentz talks with Sue Panek and Alex Hummel from the Oshkosh Civility Project about what the project is and what it was created to do. We live in a society where people are short-tempered, often frustrated and not always polite. Sometimes that may come about from disagreements or misunderstandings, but OCP tries to teach people how to find what they have in common with someone as opposed to what they don’t have in common, and how to settle differences in a way that leaves people feeling positive instead of tearing each other down to feel better about themselves.
