7:30pm - Meeting
Dorshei Tzedek members individually and as a community have been deeply involved in immigration justice work over the past two years. As the focus of the sanctuary work and needs in our community shifts, it is time for us to reflect on and assess our work so far. This gathering is for anyone in our community who is involved in immigration justice work - through sanctuary, BIJAN, or other individual projects, education programs or events. Through a series of facilitated activities we will share about our experiences in this work so far and explore together our priorities for the coming year.
