We supported a powerful Second Chance Lobby Day in North Carolina where community members were able to speak to lawmakers about the criminal justice and reentry issues that are impacting our North Carolina community. Over 700 community members attended the day of advocacy. We sent nearly 7,000 pieces of direct mail made over 38,000 phone calls and sent over 32,000 text messages. FJAN supported significant advocacy in support of the Second Chance Alliance policy priorities in 2023. We co-hosted the Kentucky Movement Assembly KMA alongside a powerful gathering of nearly 300 people from across Kentucky and surrounding southern states who are interested in grounding the South and building our collective power. The Black Womens Healing Retreat allowed us a space to reflect converse and build community with a group of phenomenal Black women in Northern Kentucky.

Grounding the South FJAN is committed to being a catalyst for transformative change at the forefront of creating a Third Reconstruction in the U.S. We have continued the work of connecting movement partners building power and amplifying community efforts across the U.S. We showed up in Nashville in solidarity with multiple calls to action to stand with the Tennessee Three including marching with the Poor Peoples Campaign and Repairers of the Breach. We showed up in Jackson MS to provide legal advocacy and communications support as the community works to address the ongoing water crisis. We supported the successful candidacy of Shameka Parrish-Wright. Shameka will continue to fight for housing justice food access and racial justice as the councilwoman for Louisville Metro District 3.
