Making A Difference: Social Justice in our Congregation
We offer friends and members the chance to get involved in our community and to put their spiritual beliefs in action. To this end, we encourage congregants to find their passion and to act on it! Below is a listing of our many congregational social justice projects. For more information on each project, please click on the link!

In 2004, the congregation was named as a Unitarian Universalist Service Committee's Vision of Justice Banner Society, which honors congregations in which 50-90 percent of the membership are UUSC members. The UUSC support social justice projects around the U.S. and the world.
