On Sunday, May 31st, Or Tzedek, JCUA’s teen organizing arm, will be holding a Youth Day of Action for our economic justice campaign! Even more than ever before, it is so important that we are fighting for the redistribution of wealth and for social safety nets to protect those most vulnerable in our communities. And it is even more important than ever before that young people are leading that work! Join us to learn more about the Fair Tax campaign, meet other justice oriented teens, learn about building power, and gain tangible community organizing skills!
All are welcome – RSVP here for the zoom link.
