    Justice for All, Part 1

    By Jeremy | May 17, 2007

    Last year at the national UYWI conference, World Vision, Fuller Seminary, and UYWI convened 30 urban youth practitioners to explore whether and how to collaborate around a national social justice initiative. The consensus was: 1. The time is right to collaborate. + Biblical Justice imperative + Increased national consciousness + U.S. urban youth realities 2. But it’s premature to decide how. Based on this feedback, the initial conveners asked me to facilitate a year-long discovery process to bring more voices to the table to explore: + What is justice? + What is God already doing around justice? + How can a collaborative initiative support it? With Kara Powell's assistance from Fuller, we designed and hosted social justice conversations in eight Reload cities: Fresno, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Memphis, Bay Area, and Pittsburgh. Fuller processed the data, I composed recommendations, and today Kara and I presented both at a pre-conference conversation. Here's the agenda, report, and presentation, and tomorrow we'll post the notes.
