🇺🇸 Meet this week’s guest: Jim Francis.
Idaho Falls City Councilman Jim Francis is joining Stand Up For Idaho for an evening that’s going to be a little different from your typical history lesson.

Jim is known for bringing an entertaining and spirited approach to the conversation, and this week he’s tackling a question that gets right to the founding of our country:
When is America’s REAL 250th anniversary — 1776 or 1787?

Jim will actually take on both sides, role-playing the argument for the Declaration of Independence and then the argument for the Constitution.
And he doesn’t get to make the final call.

YOU DO. 👀🇺🇸

Come hear both arguments, learn something you may not have known about America’s founding, and be ready to join the discussion.

The work of supporting survivors doesn't stop at the bedside or when someone finds safe housing. It also depends on the policies and resources that make those services possible.

Join us as Amanda Cook with the FERN Forensic Examination and Response Network and Angelica Sandoval Santos with the 16:14 Revival Foundation,Inc discuss the critical work their organizations do, the recent legislative challenges affecting victim services, and what those changes could mean for survivors and communities across Idaho.

This is an opportunity to better understand the issues, ask questions, and hear directly from the people on the front lines of supporting survivors every day. Your awareness and engagement matter.
