Through public television programming, targeted local activities and thoughtful conversations in communities across the country, we explore the mystery and meaning of love—how it's expressed and felt, and how it manifests differently for different people—and we'll consider the potential power of love to transform and heal our personal lives, our professional lives and our communities. In these conversations, we seek to explore the many forms love takes—from friendship and family bonds, to marriage, to carrying love into the larger community through altruism and volunteerism.
