October is Month of Resistance to Mass Incarceration, Police Terror, and the Criminalization of Youth. Many congregations have scheduled events or partnered with local organizations. If this is a cause you are passionate about, consider joining our Criminal Justice Reform – Ending the New Jim Crow Task Force. What is your congregation doing? We want to hear from you!
