Sanctuary Convening Values

• • Centering Voices of Directly-Impacted Communities: Majority of our speakers come from communities that have been directly impacted by our current and historical immigration policies and climate. Directly-impacted immigrant community members consult and guide the planning process.

• Framing Racial Justice in Our Sanctuary Work: Our content and tools are rooted in how our sanctuary work combats racial oppression on immigrant communities.

• • Integrating Interfaith Principles and Practices: Our content and tools incorporate interfaith practices throughout the convening, and teach on the challenges and opportunities for solidarity in interfaith activism
  • Humanizing Our Experience: We incorporate margins for breaks and emotional processing during the convening, and address accessibility needs such as language translation

• Prophetic: We acknowledge that our sanctuary work, in collaboration with other actors, bears witness to a visionary and public morality that has national implications
