NHC Educational Justice
Our Mission Statement: NHC Educational Justice is a group of activists who champion honest and open policy and decision-making within our schools to promote a safe, quality and equitable education for all. We attend all New Hanover County school board meetings and most school board committee meetings - either in person or virtually. We communicate key discussion topics and issues to the community through our FB page - https://www.facebook.com/NHCEJ/ - and engage our local community through various call to actions (email campaigns, petitions, etc). We also assist our community through various levels of support - including speaking on behalf of staff at board meetings, assisting parents through the IEP and/or complaint process, amplifying voices of community members and other organizations, etc. We are a small group of 6 women who are parents and/or retired NHCS educators and we are passionate about strengthening and investing into our public schools. We want to connect with other like minded local community members as we expand the work we do.

Bonfire - Colorado Springs
Bonfire brings people together in real-world spaces, to grow, learn, and spark change — together, in person. We’re building community right in your backyard, with events and gatherings that offer opportunities for personal, professional, and political engagement and fulfillment. If you are looking for connection and joy, seeking inspiration or have some to share, we have a seat by our fire for you! Bonfire was created for women of all ages and backgrounds, but is not exclusive to women. Created in partnership with the Red Wine & Blue Network, Bonfire groups are local communities led by volunteer organizers who want to bring people together where they live. The RWB Network provides the tools, training, and support to help these groups grow and thrive — while keeping community building at the center. Bonfire Colorado Springs brings together value-aligned women in the COS area to create meaningful relationships where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute. We gather monthly in member homes and local spots throughout The Springs where we lead with empathy, compassion, and kindness to build the community we want to live in. OUR BONFIRE VALUES > Inclusivity & Dialogue > Authenticity > Curiosity & Collaboration > Justice & Democracy > Local Impact > Joy

The Real Majority Holyoke
*NEW GROUP*Holyoke, MA: Please join The Real Majority Holyoke to talk about ways to create appropriate avenues of community building and solidarity in the face of a constitutional crisis. We think any local movement in Holyoke needs to directly reflect the concerns of the community, especially our most disenfranchised and marginalized residents. It is important to acknowledge that many in our predominately Puerto Rican city have been oppressed by both parties. It is perhaps more important to recognize the level of risk is multiplied for most of our community. When they come for our neighbors, STAND UP FIGHT BACK. It is necessary to organize an opposition to the actions of the current administration which is local to our city but also is careful to avoid further harm to our neighborhoods. This page and group are not affiliated with any political party. Our cause is the equitable realization of those basic rights promised at the founding of our nation and resistance to further oppression.
