SURJ Supports County Partners Promoting Accountability

On April 4th, the Baltimore and Howard County group discussed the Police Accountability Board (PAB) Coalition forming in Baltimore County. This is a coalition "working to transform public safety and end racist and violent policing". Learn more about them on twitter or check out their helpful toolkit with info on police accountability in Baltimore County.

The county meeting also included some great discussion about efforts members are individually involved in, including the Vote 4 More campaign to add more districts to Baltimore County.

We wrapped up by noting that CASA's annual spring campaign is ongoing and encourage everyone who is able to consider donating to this SURJ accountability partner. Donations will support CASA's citizenship program and legal services to help hundreds of immigrants a year navigate the U.S.' complex immigration system, find opportunities to adjust their status, and, when eligible, become U.S. Citizens. 

To hear about opportunities like this to get involved in racial justice in Baltimore and Howard county, sign up here for the next county meeting on Monday May 2nd at 7pm.
