Socializing for Justice - www.sojust.org

Since 2006, we’ve been building this great sandbox where we can bring progressives of all stripes together and try out new ideas in this “Movement Moment”. Spaces like this are crucial as we start to reframe and build new visions for our movement(s).

SoJust hosts events that draw progressives of all stripes that share common values but may work on different issues. We host monthly socials that allow for the possibility of cross-issue connections and run a monthly ProfDev Series, hosted by The NonProfit Center*, which provides access to affordable professional development to increase our individual capacity for movement building.

With 2500 members and 8 years of creating a diverse cross-issue community in Boston (190 events!), Socializing for Justice is the best place to find the great people, organizations and community you’re looking for while putting the SOCIAL back in social justice.
