Whether you attended Assembly 2014 or not, you will find valuable tools and links to address justice issues, strengthen leadership skills or extend member outreach.
The United Methodist Women Kitchen is one of those places where we organize to ensure that all are fed, both literally and figuratively. How are you organizing locally to make things happen in a new way? Resources will help you rethink your outreach and "cook up" fresh ideas.
This industry encompasses justice issues ranging from economic disparity to racism. You can recreate the Just Food Restaurant experience introduced at Assembly 2014.

This experiential look at justice issues was introduced at Assembly 2014. It explores food systems, energy use, livelihoods, land use, violence against women, migration, criminalization, greed, radical hospitality and abundance. The informational signs are provided to allow local groups to share the experience.
The Experience Hall at Assembly 2014 featured the "Dirty Laundry" exhibit. Local groups of United Methodist Women are encouraged to raise awareness about violence toward women and children with a similar display. Signs are provided to download and post near your clothesline.
