Consider your church, organization, JustFaith Ministries small group, and/or yourself as an individual...
- Do you want to take action for justice, but you aren’t quite sure how to get started?
- Are you already taking action for justice, but you’d like to learn how to be more effective in your work?
- Do you want to get your family, friends, church, or community involved, but you sometimes feel you are the only one doing the work?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, this program was written for you and your community!
Program Overview
Just Action! How to Advocate and Mobilize for Justice guides small groups in taking sustainable, effective, and faith-filled action for justice. Groups begin by discerning a justice concern they would like to address together. Then, with that justice concern in mind, participants learn how to stand in solidarity with those affected by the issue, mobilize others for action, and advocate effectively for lasting change.
Program Goals
Goals for Just Action! How to Advocate and Mobilize for Justice include:
Facilitation
Two volunteer facilitators are needed for Just Action! How to Advocate and Mobilize for Justice. JustFaith Ministries provides strong facilitation support.
Sessions
Just Action consists of a 3-hour retreat, eight 2-hour sessions, and an immersion experience.
