Thank you all for making our first Lobbying Day for Incarceration Reform (January 25, 2022) a great success. Here are just a few of things we can be very proud of:
- We were a multiracial, multifaith group representing 14 Christian, Jewish, and Muslim congregations
- We held 17 meetings with our legislators, and about 100 people lobbied throughout the day
- We accomplished all of this in a 3 month period!
The sense of Beloved Community in our group was palpable, and we know that we have a long way ahead.
To stay in touch with our Multifaith Team and to catch up on recordings of the Lobbying Day, please join our NEW Facebook Group. We will no longer be using our previous private group and instead be moving to this public group in an effort to make our conversations and community accessible to as many people as possible. Rest assured, we will still have moderators to ensure a healthy, productive conversation. We are excited to continue our work together.
Onward,
The Multi-faith Criminal Justice Reform Team
