Allies Working for
Social Justice & Environmental Progress
Meeting January 17th!
In Partnership with the W.K. Kellogg Foundation National Day of Racial Healing
Join LEDA on Tuesday, January 17th from 6:30-8:00pm for the second meeting of Allies Working for Social Justice & Environmental Progress. We will again be meeting in the lower level at Herrick District Library in Holland. Register here to let us know you’ll be at the meeting! (This helps us plan appropriate space for the number of attendees.)
In December, more than 250 community members met to discuss concerns and explore strategies surrounding eight key issues, including immigration policy, racial justice, women’s issues, LGBTQ equity, religious tolerance (addressing anti-Muslim concerns), environmental protection/climate change, hate crimes and school bullying.
After hearing brief explanations of these topics from a panel of speakers, each group discussed various methods for solving the most pressing issues in their topic. Each group then created a list of strategies that could be carried forward in the community. The mission for our January 17th meeting is to finalize these strategies and plan for further action toward implementing these goals. Come join the Allies and help us work for a more inclusive community. We look forward to seeing you there!
