At the 1999 JwJ meeting in Kentucky, Fr. Ed Boyle led us in prayer and ACTION! |
The National Jobs with Justice Annual meeting will be at U-Mass, Dartmouth, July 21-23, 2000.
Hundreds of labor, community, religious and student activists will come from all over the country to focus on
coalition building and organizing for economic justice.
Building on the success of the last several years, Jobs
with Justice will again host a Religion-Labor preconference
for participants who want to focus on this important aspect
of our work.
The pre-conference will feature case studies about local
organizing and concrete skills for activists interested
in starting and/or deepening religion-labor coalition
work around workers' rights and economic justice. Topics
will include Workers Rights Boards, Labor in the Pulpits,
Sweatshops, the Global Economy, Strategic Support for
Organizing and Faith Perspectives on Workers' Rights.
