Webinar: A Faith Response to COVID-19 on April 7

April 7, 2020 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Join us for the interfaith webinar, A Faith Response to COVID-19 on April 7, 2020 at 3:00 p.m. The webinar will explain important details of the recently passed C.A.R.E.S. Act, the positive provisions, and the key priorities that were left out. We will look at implications of COVID-19 and the recent legislation on a variety of issues and populations, including: incarcerated individuals, immigrants, low-income communities, Native Americans, our health care system, and elections. Congress is already starting negotiations on a fourth COVID-19 package.

The second half of this webinar will be an advocacy training about how to set up and conduct virtual meetings with congressional offices. The faith voice is incredibly important in this moment. We hope you will join and spread the word.

Featuring Sister Simone Campbell, Executive Director of NETWORK, and policy experts from Islamic Relief USA, the National Council of Churches, the United Church of Christ, the Friends Committee on National Legislation, National Council of Jewish Women, the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, the Franciscan Action Network, and the Columban Center for Advocacy and Outreach.
