Are you passionate about the vision of a just city where everyone has a home? Do you want to learn what role you can play in pursuing that vision? The Housing Justice Discipleship Program (HJD) is a new opportunity from Just Homes designed to build the capacity of Christians in the DC area to pursue and embody justice, specifically housing justice.
Why participate in HJD?
Participants will build community with fellow Christians while receiving practical training on how to pursue housing justice. Through a series of skills-based workshops and small group conversations, you’ll become prepared to advocate for expansion of housing justice alongside a community of like-minded peers.
What is involved in the program?
A series of skills-based workshop trainings, with topics including Advocacy 101, Caring for Unhoused Neighbors, and Investing in Housing Justice. These workshops will take place every 4-6 weeks, spanning from March 2021 through July 2021. These workshops will be held virtually on weekday evenings, so you can participate from anywhere!
Participants will also be placed in small groups of 5-7 people, who will connect with one another between workshops to process what they’re learning and engage in action together. These groups will be led by facilitators from Just Homes and include both intentional conversation for further learning and community building. Each group will choose their own schedule.
To learn more about this program and what participation looks like, join us for this Virtual Kick Off Event on Tuesday March 9th at 7:00 PM.
See you then!
