The Justice and Equity Team is dedicated to advancing justice and engaging in compassionate outreach on issues that reflect the values and principles of our Unitarian Universalist faith.

Are you interested in how we can partner with the community to bring more love and justice into our world during this crisis? Join us! We are currently working on issues related to incarceration and prison justice, immigration justice, antiracism, and voting rights.

The team started up in May of 2020 as an online organizing call amongst members concerned with justice issues during the COVID-19 pandemic, and has expanded to include a variety of concerns that members and friends bring forward.

The Justice & Equity Call

Every Friday morning, from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m., we come together on Zoom to share resources and organize for action. This group is open to anyone with an interest in learning about the political and social issues confronting our community, state, and nation, and a desire to learn about opportunities to get involved.

As a first step, please join the Justice & Equity Group on our congregational communication site, Realm.

We understand the Friday morning time slot is not ideal for everyone! If you’re not able to attend the regular Friday calls, please join the Justice & Equity Group anyway, where you can access the weekly meeting notes and find out about opportunities to take action.
