We embarked on a journey of discovery to understand the tireless and comprehensive work that UU activists were doing to make our world more just. Our call for submissions drew interest from active social justice committees and congregations from every corner of the country. We are pleased to collaborate with them in sharing best practice approaches to justice work for our readers to learn from and to bring inspiration. Enjoy the stories, share in the efforts, and use the ideas you see below as a model for your continued work in economic justice.
