Love is the spirit of our church and it is that love that guides us to seek justice for all. In that spirit the Heritage Social Justice Collaborative brings together individuals who have passion around various areas of social justice.
We gather to share information and support each other around these passions. We meet to generate ideas using the power of group interaction. Individuals or teams take the lead in a specific area of justice work. They communicate their activities to the greater congregation. With congregational involvement, more impact can occur as we work together to change injustices in our world. We also meet to vote on the use of monies from the church’s Social Justice balance sheet account.
Any Heritage UU Church member or friend is welcome to join the Social Justice Collaborative and lead the congregation in their passion.

Social Justice Collaborative Meets on February 22
Our long-standing Heritage Church Social Justice Collaborative will meet on Sunday, February 22, 2026, starting around ten minutes after the end of the worship service. We will meet in person in the Heritage Room.
Immigration justice is a big topic at our meetings these days, folding in the work of Heritage’s Democracy Action Team. Government reform, racial justice, and indigenous peoples are also current topics. If you are interested in these topics, or in recent topics such as LGBTQ+ support, housing and homelessness, economic justice, or climate justice—please join us at the meeting!
The meeting is open to all Heritage members and friends.
