Social Justice Priorities

NCCWJ supports community-centered approaches that promote public safety, accountability, and healing. We advocate for restorative practices, victim-centered services, successful community reentry, violence prevention, and collaborative solutions that strengthen individuals, families, and communities.

NCCWJ believes access to nutritious, affordable, and culturally appropriate food is essential to individual and community well-being. We support initiatives that address food insecurity, improve nutrition, and promote sustainable food systems, recognizing the disproportionate impact of hunger on women and families.

NCCWJ supports equitable access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare, health education, and family planning resources. We believe women should have access to the information and services needed to make informed decisions about their health and well-being.

NCCWJ advocates for healthy, sustainable communities where all people have equitable access to clean air, clean water, safe food, and resilient infrastructure. We support policies and community efforts that reduce environmental disparities and strengthen preparedness for natural disasters and other environmental challenges.

NCCWJ promotes economic opportunity by supporting financial stability, workforce development, entrepreneurship, and policies that reduce barriers to economic mobility. We advocate for systems that help women and families achieve long-term financial security.

NCCWJ supports the dignity, safety, and well-being of immigrants, refugees, asylum seekers, and their families. We advocate for equitable access to resources, legal protections, and community support while working to prevent exploitation, violence, and human trafficking.

NCCWJ supports equitable access to technology, digital literacy, and safe online environments for women and families. We advocate for digital inclusion, cybersecurity awareness, online privacy, and the responsible use of emerging technologies while working to prevent technology-facilitated abuse, exploitation, and barriers to opportunity.
