Texas Unitarian Universalist Justice Ministry (TXUUJM) is our UU state action network, which brings UU congregations together from around the state, online and in person, to bring UU values and voices to the public square. We know Texas needs that!
TXUUJM has also been doing the work of organizing and educating UUs around crucial issues, from trans inclusion to racial justice, all year long. TXUUJM co-hosted an OWL facilitator training this year with First UU Austin, as well as supported Executive Director Rev. Erin Walter in traveling to New Mexico as a chaplain for people seeking abortion healthcare. TXUUJM also became part of the Teach the Truth Coalition, which is advocating to our State Board of Education for accurate and inclusive social studies and other curriculum.
Every Thursday night in Zoom Action Hour, TXUUJM members take action together around climate, immigration, the death penalty, and more.
TXUUJM is a grassroots justice nonprofit made possible by people power
and the generosity of congregational dues and individual donations. By sharing the plate, we join with fellow UUs around the state in the lifelong work of Bending Texas Toward Justice.
We are the justice ministry. TXUUJM cannot do this work without us – without you. Thank you for First UU’s generous support!
