  • Exciting News! The Washington Post recently highlighted the impactful work we are doing at the Social Justice School through our Guaranteed, Together program. In collaboration with Mother's Outreach Network, this initiative is providing essential financial support to families in Washington, D.C. This initiative is the result of student led and proposed strategies to combat poverty in DC. We are dedicated to empowering our community and creating lasting change. Help us spread the word. #SocialJusticeSchool #GuaranteedTogether #MothersOutreachNetwork #CommunitySupport #DCschools #FinancialEmpowerment #SocialImpact https://lnkd.in/ewaqac_v

  • 📣 Celebrating Our Scholar-Activists! 🌟 We're incredibly proud of our 7th graders for their dedication to activism and advocacy, particularly in addressing intercommunal gun violence in DC. Their commitment to creating student-led solutions is nothing short of inspiring. These young leaders have taken bold steps to understand the complexities of gun violence and have designed thoughtful, impactful initiatives aimed at fostering safer communities. Their work is a testament to the power of youth activism and the importance of empowering students to be change-makers. Join us in celebrating these remarkable scholar-activists who are proving that age is no barrier to making a difference. Together, we are building a brighter, safer future for all. We are not simply a school; we are a MOVEMENT. #YouthActivism #StudentLeaders #CommunitySafety #DCYouth #Empowerment #ScholarActivists #StopGunViolence

    Big news! The Social Justice School is partnering with Mother's Outreach Network (@mothersoutreach) to offer Washington, D.C.'s first intergenerational guaranteed income program! This means the opportunity for direct cash benefits for SJS families this summer. We are so proud to be a part of this historic and innovative project. Guaranteed, Together will include both direct cash benefits ($800 a month, distributed weekly) and legal education services to 15 households for 3 months, starting this summer. MON will sustain and assess the efficacy of the program (with the goal of presenting findings to encourage more guaranteed income policies). Families who are enrolled at SJS and meet specific socioeconomic eligibility criteria (details below) will qualify for consideration. SJS and MON will identify and enroll approximately 15 households who: - have transition-aged youth and families who are considered ‘at-risk’ or have a high exposure to gun violence or at-risk for CFSA involvement - reside in DC, especially communities that have historically been impacted by adverse social determinants of health (i.e., housing insecurity, food insecurity, etc.) We'll have an info session at SJS next week (snacks provided!) on Wednesday June 12 at 5:30pm. All are welcome! And if you're not part of the SJS family yet, we can help you with that, too. If you qualify and are interested, please reach out to Mr. Long at myron@thesocialjusticeschool.org Learn more at https://lnkd.in/ebv8j5Yg Thank you again to MON (@mothersoutreach) for partnering with SJS for this opportunity! #washingtondc #dc #ubi #education #economicjustice #socialjustice
