SUMMARY:Making An Impact in an Election Year with VAAC & MI-CEMI
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 elections will shape the policies\, budgets\, and syst
 ems that determine whether mass incarceration continues to expand or wheth
 er our communities finally see meaningful change. \n\nFor communities mos
 t impacted by incarceration\, disengagement is not an option. Decisions ma
 de in this cycle will affect sentencing laws\, parole and probation practi
 ces\, jail and prison conditions\, voting rights\, public safety investmen
 ts\, and access to housing\, health care\, and reentry support for years t
 o come.\n\nJoin us on February 12 from 7-8:30pm on Zoom as we come togethe
 r to look at how we can build power\, advance justice\, and move toward en
 ding mass incarceration.\n\nThis conversation will explore how communities
  can: \n\n 	 Mobilize voters and strengthen civic power\n 	 Build a trans
 formative justice platform rooted in lived experience\n 	 Educate decision
  makers on the issues that matter most to our communities\n\nAs this elect
 ion season approaches\, it is critical that we are not only preparing to v
 ote\, but also organizing\, educating\, and shaping the narrative around p
 ublic safety\, accountability\, and justice. \n\nOur power is collective\
 , our voices matter\, and the work we do now will shape what is possible l
 ong after the ballots are counted.\n\nThis session is for community member
 s\, organizers\, advocates\, and anyone who wants to understand how civic 
 engagement can be a tool for long term change.\n\nRegister now --&gt\; htt
