Our Collective Liberation Ministry program is our umbrella program that helps support the various justice teams that operate within UU Asheville, as well as organize around a few priorities that are voted on by the Justice Ministry Council (which is open to everyone!). These groups help to educate, organize, and inspire our congregation to do the work for justice and equity in our congregation and beyond our walls.

The current Collective Liberation priorities are:  Reproductive Justice, Voting Rights, and Environmental Justice.

Below is just a sample of some current ongoing programs:

• • Reproductive Justice

  • UU the Vote and Voting Rights

  • Environmental Justice

  • Pride+ Team: Gender & Sexuality Justice (and LGBTQIA+ community!)

  • Community Plate Committee: Sharing Sunday donations with local organizations
