Network for Social Justice
About
The Network for Social Justice is a Winchester nonprofit working to advance equity and inclusion in the town and beyond. It offers multicultural training workshops and forums, provides advocacy and support for witnesses and targets of bias and discrimination, and arranges activities for international residents adjusting to a new culture and language. Its work spans race, gender, ethnicity, religion, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, abilities and other aspects of identity.
The group was founded in 1991 as the Winchester Multicultural Network and took its current name in 2019, reflecting a mission to foster a movement for systemic change. It pursues education, advocacy and response around human rights, confronting intolerance while promoting understanding of the diversity and similarities among residents. The Network collaborates with town government, local schools, faith communities and civic organizations, and its programs are funded by Winchester residents, organizations and faith communities.
