The UU Justice Ministry of North Carolina has been "building a new way" over the past year as we've been working to reorganize and recreate UUJMNC as a more visible, more connected, more viable, and more effective statewide organization that will "give life the shape of justice."

Thank you to the more than 70 individuals and 8 UU congregations who contributed more than $33,500 to UU Forward Together in 2018 to build and sustain a more visible, more effective, more active, more connected, and adequately funded statewide, faith-based, progressive, nonpartisan, nonprofit justice ministry that supports the social justice work of UU congregations across the state; builds relationships and partnerships with other faith-based and secular organizations that are working for social justice; and gives voice to our shared UU values through witness, advocacy, lobbying, organizing, mobilizing, and action with respect to social justice, environmental justice, economic justice, and civil rights at the state legislature in Raleigh and elsewhere. We're off to a great start for 2019 but there's still so much we need to do and we can't do it without your support.
