Beginning September 26th, the NCCADP team will walk 136 miles to raise awareness of the 136 lives at risk of execution in North Carolina and to call on Governor Roy Cooper to eliminate that risk by commuting death sentences to prison terms before he leaves office at the end of 2024. We will take action in support of this important campaign. Review this week's resources and actions on our Google Doc, and Join via this Zoom Link.

North Carolina Abortion Rights Interfaith Phone Bank. Tuesday September 24th from 7:00 - 9:00 Join Side With Love, UU Justice NC, Pro-Choice North Carolina, and Carolina Jews for Justice for our second fall phonebank calling North Carolina voters. The future of abortion access in North Carolina is on the line this election! Even though there isn't a ballot initiative, abortion is absolutely on the ballot in NC, because those we elect will either defend and advance abortion access, or keep banning it. In August, 55 people across the country made 19,000 dials, and had 667 conversations! Help us surpass 20K dials this month! Register Here.
