- March 25-April 5: In-District Advocacy Visits for Immigration Reform
- April 10: The Time Is Now Immigration Reform Rally in DC and around the US
- April 19 – 20: Dismantling The Doctrine of Discovery International Conference (Grants for DoD projects available up to $1,000).

Many of our UU statewide legislative networks are organizing on these issues, so be sure to connect your congregation with them and get connected with other UU congregations and partners. See www.uua.org/justice for resources, organizing campaigns, stories, and more!
