Monday Nov. 10th, 12-1:00 pm
How do you build and grow your immigration justice efforts in your congregation? Join our November UU Immigration Justice Team gathering to learn concrete organizing skills for how to grow your congregation immigration and social justice teams. In this session, Rabbi Allen Lipson from Essex County Community Organization (ECCO) will lead a training to support you in strategizing about how to build leaders, build power, and deepen your impact so your immigration and social justice work is as strong as it can be.
Optional Pre-Meeting Gathering 11:30-12 for Tea and Skill Sharing!
Just before our regular meeting, we will continue our extra 30 minutes of sharing and problem-solving. This is an optional, informal time for more open conversations with each other to support you in building your immigration teams. We also discuss more strategic questions about immigration justice organizing in your congregations. Topics we’ve covered in the past include legal resources, what skills you need to accompany someone to court, getting started, and more! You can RSVP for both times on the regular RSVP form.
