"What Does Racial and Social Justice Look Like in Our Locals?" is designed to help participants understand the role they can play in promoting equality and inclusivity in their communities. The workshop will feature round table discussions where participants will have the opportunity to share their thoughts and ideas on how to address member concerns and bring all groups to the table. Through these discussions, attendees will learn about the power they have to control the narrative and take actions that can help move the needle towards a more just local and community. The workshop will equip attendees with the knowledge and tools they need to plan for future social justice actions and ensure everyone is seen and heard in their communities.

After two years of focus on the LAP Pillars-Organizing, Social Justice, Community Engagement and Political Action this session will act a complete overview with a focus on well-run campaigns. We will review the core components of a campaign and identification of worthy issues.  Local LAP teams will draw from their previous years’ training to develop campaigns that will exist beyond their LAP training.  

Presenters: Christine Sarni and Sarah Arbitrio
