PPJC has been leading the Resistance for over 35 years!

We're proud of our many achievements over the years, but we're really proud of our actions since the shocking outcome of last November's election. Our record demonstrates that years of experience and deep roots in the local community equal effective action. Here's some of what we've been up to over the past 12 months ...

Pledge to Resist Gathering

The morning after the election we started organizing an emergency response. Four days later, over 150 people heard powerful talks by our invited speakers, then were deeply moved by the words of over 30 people who eloquently took advantage of the open mic. In times like these, PPJC is always ready to bring us together to allow our voices to raised and heard.
