social justice in action

Immigration

We work with organizations that support immigrants and refugees on both sides of the border. We have monthly actions with Border Angels, as well as continuing support for Los Angelitos, Heart for Refugees, North County Immigration Task Force and other organizations in California. We continually fight against racist the policies that emerge from the current administration and do NOT support a ban on Muslims or building a wall. 

YOUTH OUTREACH

Our Youth Outreach is focused on teaching children how to be socially and politically active by engaging with kids in our community from elementary ages all the way to college aged youth. The NCJA engage with MECHA groups, Gay/Straight high school and college alliance groups, plan youth summits and workshops to teach political activism and social engagement and connect with community groups that include youth and families.
