Celebrating Equity & Visionary Leaders @ United Domestic Workers Community Hall
Sep 19 @ 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm

This year, we had the honor of graduating the fourth cohort of our Boards and Commissions Leadership Institute and the 14th class of our Students for Economic Justice Fellowship.

Over the course of six months, 13 community leaders expanded their skills to serve on commissions and seven students learned and practiced organizing skills in on-the-ground organizing campaigns led by local labor and community partners.

Now it’s time to celebrate these visionary leaders!

We invite you to join us—and City of San Diego Councilmember Monica Montgomery—to recognize their achievements and celebrate our growing community of leaders and organizers working to create a more equitable San Diego region.
