Join us to learn, organize and advocate around environmental justice! Compassion, Peace and Justice Training Days offer an opportunity to support this global movement centered on and led by the people and communities most vulnerable to climate impacts due to historic racial and colonial inequities. We continue to see how the historic reality of colonialism and structural racism has designed systems that live on today through environmental racism and a myriad of other injustices that grew out of the same evil roots. Throughout 2020, these systemic issues manifested themselves in the disproportionate number of racial and ethnic minorities who became sick with and died of COVID-19, as well as the continued extrajudicial killing of Black men and women.
The Earth and its people are groaning. We are called to respond.

Featured Speakers
The Rev. Dr. Cláudio Carvalhaes, a theologian, liturgist, artist and activist who is the Associate Professor of Worship at Union Theological Seminary in New York City.
Harry Pickens, an award-winning performing artist, educator, composer, author, workshop facilitator and life transformation coach in Louisville, Kentucky.
CPJ Days will feature Claudio Carvalhaes and Harry Pickens, along with our partners from the most impacted communities in the United States and around the globe. We will have several sessions to delve deep into the issues of the day as well as address our current brokenness and how we lay the groundwork for justice and reconciliation. This year, CPJ Day expanded to three days to provide a breadth of content around this year’s theme, environmental justice, without the potential Zoom fatigue of a day-long online event. Each day will start at 11 a.m. Eastern Time and go to 12:30 p.m. On April 7 and 8, there will be small group gatherings at 1:30 p.m. ET. Registration is free.
