Economic Justice Task Force

The Economic Justice Task Force will strive for equity through education and support of distributive economic justice projects, both local and global. The task force's primary method of effecting change will be through education and community organizing. Effecting change in the economic realm begins with awareness of the problem and how we individually participate in systems which either promote economic justice or not. The task force participates in activities that cause positive change for those in economic need, with the goal of building awareness while effecting change in debilitating economic structures.

Activities have included the hosting of a movie, "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Prices" in November attended by 120 people. We participated at the clothing swap organized by the Green Sanctuary Task Force by setting up a poster and information sources on ethical consumption.

We look to continue education through hosting films. We also envision an event that would help non-profits that support ethical consumption.
