SUMMARY:
J.U.S.T. Pensacola (Justice United Seeking Transformation in Pensacola) is a coalition of over 16 congregations from 12 different faith traditions in Pensacola and other surrounding areas of Escambia County. J.U.S.T. Pensacola is an interfaith organization that actively uncovers injustice and mobilizes the community through the power of organized people to create and win just, fair, and effective solutions. Their member congregations research and conduct public education to address the root causes of poverty and injustice, through the empowerment of marginalized people.
J.U.S.T. Pensacola is taking on an affordable housing campaign. While J.U.S.T. Pensacola representatives met with City Council Members individually, this presentation will provide information regarding that campaign, to the body whole.
