Young people who have just completed grades 6-12 are invited to participate in a 6-day virtual Racial Justice Organizing Camp on July 12-17. This camp will teach community organizing tools while equipping youth for and engaging them in meaningful action for racial justice. All sessions will have a Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) facilitator or co-facilitator. It will include some work in racial affinity groups. 

Organizers strongly encourage each church group include at least one adult mentor in order to ecourage ongoing support of the young activists after the course.

Sunday afternoon Kick-off from 1:00 to 3:00 pm
Monday through Thursday from 7:00 to 8:30 pm
Friday daytime: Take action together (timing is tentative, details TBD)

This camp is offered through a partnership between the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts Office of Youth Ministry, I Have a Future, Kids4Peace, Episcopal City Mission, and The Episcopal Church of St. John the Evangelist, Hingham.
