Economic justice is a component of social justice. It's a set of moral principles for building economic institutions, the ultimate goal of which is to create an opportunity for each person to create a sufficient material foundation upon which to have a dignified, productive, and creative life beyond economics. June's forum will highlight social innovations that create opportunities for our region's most marginalized communities, especially those who are directly impacted by failed criminal justice policies. Attendees will have a chance to meet leaders the economic justice movement and take part in group discussions on how they can individually and collectively contribute to the economic justice movement. The conversation will be recorded for the Capitol Innovation Podcast series. Register here.
