At the JustUS Coordinating Council (JCC), we firmly believe that those closest to the problem hold the keys to the solution. However, access to resources and decision-making processes has often been out of reach. Our Speaker Series aims to bridge this gap by fostering collaboration among policymakers, advocates, and our communities to tackle pressing issues hindering economic mobility.
Throughout the series, we’ll dive into crucial topics such as federal workforce training and funding for your communities, maximizing federal engagement for economic opportunity, and breaking down barriers to equity and our rights. These sessions allow the JCC to operate as both a table for our partners and a table for our communities.
Join us for our 1st session of 2024, where we’ll be exploring current ways we can work together to increase resources for our communities.
