NJ Abolition Workshop

April 23 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free
NJ Abolition Workshops at the HUUB flyer
Event info and registration at https://isyourlifebetter.net/nj-abolition-workshops/

All workshop sessions will be free for participants. We will only request that everyone who attends, come with both the intention to learn and the willingness to share with others. The greater goal for this program is to promote an “Each One Teach One” strategy. We hope attendees will bring the knowledge they gain from the workshops back to their organizations and communities. Workshops will meet on the 3rd Tuesday of odd numbered months, and the 4th Tuesday of even numbered months.

Please direct all questions and inquiries to: isyourlifebetter@gmail.com.

Space for the in-person participation is very limited, but we encourage all who can attend in person to do so! We are asking that potential participants register in advance, being sure to register for either the virtual option OR the in-person option. Both links can be found below.
