GBIO (Greater Boston Interfaith Organization)
Faith / Power / Action
There are two exciting opportunities coming up soon, to get involved with GBIO’s current work at both the state and local levels.
State Level – Housing Justice Campaign
GBIO’s Housing Justice Campaign is campaigning for more funding for affordable and public housing, more opportunities in training for mental health careers, and service for persons returning from incarceration.
This fall is when we set up “In-District Meetings” with the state senator and representatives whose districts include Brookline, and seek their commitment to these justice issues.
Join us for a training on September 21, 6:30 to 8:30pm by Zoom about conducting these In-District Meetings.

Join our fellow GBIO congregations in Brookline on Monday, October 2, 7-9pm
