RJC Advocacy Team

The Racial Justice Coalition Advocacy Team will advocate for antiracist policy change on the local level by calling policymakers to urge them toward equity, and then recruiting other people to join our efforts and do likewise.


Summary 

  • The Racial Justice Coalition Advocacy Team will advocate for antiracist policy change on the local level by calling policymakers to urge them toward equity, and then recruiting other people to join our efforts and do likewise. 

Details

  • The Racial Justice Coalition is working to address inequitable and racist policy within the various institutions within our community. Working with the member organizations of the coalition and other allies, we will identify important policy makers and policies that need to shift, and then we’ll launch campaigns to influence them.
  • Each campaign will have one or more demands for a policy shift, which will be communicated in advance to the public officials empowered to make that shift. We will set targets for the number of calls to that official that we estimate will be necessary to influence them to make the change.
