“Hope is our superpower.” – Bryan Stevenson

This year we celebrate the work that our community has done together and reinforce our hopeful vision for the future! With a recently approved strategic plan we look forward to the next five years of building community and creating change. As we act for systemic change in the church and world, your collaboration and support enable us to carry out our mission through publications, advocacy, and programs including:

• Northwest Coalition for Responsible Investment, whose members advocate for corporate responsibility in the areas of climate justice, human rights, modern day slavery, and gun safety.
• Justice for Women, a grassroots movement for social justice and systemic change, especially for women living on the margins.
• Justice Rising, a podcast about emerging justice work, featuring social justice practitioners.
• Youth Action Team, focused on high school students doing faith-based community organizing.
• Collaboration with communities on care for creation, racism, immigration, and human rights.
• Published print resources, including “Open Wide Our Hearts,” which focuses on challenging racism, and our quarterly justice publication, “A Matter of Spirit.”

This year, we will celebrate our Spring Benefit though our theme “Sowing Hope”! We know that justice work must be grounded in hope and effected through collaborative work. Thank you for all the various ways that you support our work and empower us to continue moving forward!
