BREAD Adds Jobs to Action Agenda

Other Campaigns: Keeping Kids in School, Increasing Access to Healthcare; Reducing Re-Arrest Rates; Getting Rid of Vacant Housing.

As culimination of BREAD's Annual Listening Process, 500 leaders gathered at Rhema Christian Center on Monday, November 14th and voted to add "Jobs" to the organizations issue focus. In countless house meetings, young people told about how hard it was to find work, middle-aged workers talked about being laid off, and Latinos and African Americans described the challenges that they face.

A Research Team will be trained in December. Justice Ministries in member congregations will begin meeting in January and Feburary. All of this energy will join together at BREAD's largest ever Nehemiah Action on Monday, May 7th.

BREAD Rises!
