Community Resources
We hope to raise community awareness. To this end we partner with and support a number of groups. We urge you to help out or use these resources as needed.
350 Marin
350Marin is made up of grassroots activists who are deeply concerned about climate breakdown. Regionally, we're affiliated with 350 Bay Area which is working to achieve a significant decrease in all heat-trapping gases both locally and statewide. Globally, we're part of the 350 movement, that's continuing to grow in 188 countries around the world.
Please consider becoming a vital part of our planet's future. Our web site lists a number of things you can do to get involved. If you have time for a more serious commitment, please see the 350Marin volunteer page. For more information call Barbara Bogard at (415) 388-2018. We hope you'll join us.

MPJC—Marin Peace & Justice Coalition
Join a movement that lifts the human spirit, that embraces the Bill of Rights, that creates a true democracy, an independent media and a sustainable world with peace and justice for all! MPJC would like to invite you to join us in working towards these goals.
Moved by the event of 9/11 we came together to challenge our government's unethical and illegal military response. Peaceful and just solutions will prevail only if we examine our nation's policies at home and abroad and address the root causes of war and terrorism. Let us be guided by compassion as we challenge war and stop the terror of poverty, inequality and injustice. Let us bring together the widening circle who want to make real a world that works for all.
