Are you looking for a way to support the disenfranchised, the poor, the oppressed, and to make our world a better place for all?steve bridenbaugh hands

Do you want to work towards a globally sustainable environment, equitable distribution of resources, with a fair and democratic system of government?

Do you desire a world where all inhabitants have equal rights and access to services regardless of race, social standing, sexual orientation or gender identity?

Would you like to participate with others in our community, state, nation or world to work towards these goals?

If your answer to any of the above is Yes!, then participating in the activities of the Social Justice Committee will be a way for you to meet your personal goals.

Please join us at the Social Justice Meeting on the first Tuesday of the month at 7pm.
