Thirteen Missouri Jobs with Justice staff, activists and leaders traveled to Washington, DC for the 2011 National Jobs with Justice Conference August 5-7. It was a great opportunity to share victories, compare tactics and plan strategies for the next year with other JwJ coalitions.

Many MO JwJ staff and leaders presented on workshops, trainings and panels. Statewide Public Good Project Organizer Kelly Anthony presented during all three workshop sessions on Saturday! St. Louis Organizer Aaron Burnett, Organizing Director Donnie Morehouse, Communications Organizer Charlie Edelen, Workers’ Rights Board Co-Chair Joan Suarez, and Leadership Development Trainer Joe Thomas all presented in one or more sessions.

Missouri JwJ delegates came back re-energized and empowered to fight for economic justice in 2012!
