Plant #SeedsForJustice with UUJMCA and volunteer to be part of our “behind the scenes” work! By giving just a few hours of your time and talents, you can help us create and sustain a faithful movement for liberation. Take our volunteer survey and let us know which of the listed opportunities to “give” you would like to take!
We also support the varied ministries of those who participate in our statewide "Justice Collectives," which are networks that connect UUs and UU-aligned justice makers all around the state who are working on similar issues. These collectives connect through monthly statewide calls, UUJMCA's Slack Workspace, and email groups.
Get connected with UUs and UU-aligned justice makers in California who share your interests! Explore & join our new California JUUstice Collectives, where justice makers can join online spaces & monthly calls to share updates, resources, & events, as well as ask questions of others working on similar justice issues. Collectives are being formed in the following areas: Climate Justice, Economic Justice, Immigrant Justice, and Racial Justice & Abolition.
Much of our work is led & shaped by our all-volunteer Organizing Action Teams -- groups of lay leaders and clergy who collaborate with partner organizations & communities to make a difference. Working alongside UU congregations, UUJMCA staff & volunteers mobilize faith-rooted justice-makers to engage in strategic, relational, and intersectional approaches to liberation.
UUJMCA works to create justice on a number of issues. Our state-level justice efforts are lead through our grassroots Action Teams with support from our Executive Director, Rev. Ranwa Hammamy. We are always looking for dedicated individuals to join our teams and cultivate their skills as faith-rooted organizers! We currently have Action Teams related to Immigrant Justice & Environmental Justice, and are working on building up our Economic Justice as well as our Racial Justice & Abolition Teams! Please email us if you would like more information on these teams and ways they can support your work.
It takes the support of individuals like you to make this justice ministry work. Please consider making a one-time donation, or become a UUJMCA Justice Sustainer with a monthly donation! Your gifts make it possible for us to support and organize a variety of accessible education, advocacy, and witness opportunities for California UUs and our partners in liberation.
