PRIORITY II
Social Justice
Project 2.1 Criminal Justice Reform
Goal: Supporting alternatives to incarceration, addressing the underlying causes of crime; look for ways to voice opposition in a positive way.
Project 2.2 Anti-Racism, Multicultural Communities and Civil Rights
Goal: Collaborate and support social justice organizations working on DEI and voter rights, uplift legislation focused on impacted communities.
Project 2.3 Legislative Advocacy
Goal: Monitor and support bills related to NFP Priorities.
Project 2.4 Education and Social Justice
Goal: Monitor bills focused on Education, support organizations and events focused on Education and school safety.
As our organizational motto states, “There is no peace without justice.” Unless we are laying the foundation for a society based on equality before the law, economic sufficiency and democratic participation for each of its members, peace will be elusive. A commitment to civil rights and economic justice for all has been a guiding principle of Nebraskans for Peace since its founding in 1970 and remains so today.
Although we annually designate issue priorities to focus on for the coming year, NFP’s support for justice and fairness ranges from LGBTQIA rights to cultural awareness and education to voting reform.
