📢 NEW COALITION PARTNERS 📢 Please join us in warm 📢 NEW COALITION PARTNERS 📢

Please join us in warmly welcoming NC NAACP (@ncnaacp1) and Deep Time (@deeptimeavl) to NCCADP!

During our spring coalition call, members unanimously voted both new partners into our movement. We're delighted to share that our coalition has now grown to 27 organizations.

The North Carolina State Conference of the NAACP works to “achieve equity, political rights, and social inclusion by advancing policies and practices that expand human and civil rights, eliminate discrimination, and accelerate the well-being, education, and economic security of Black people and all persons of color.” Their longstanding leadership in civil rights advocacy strengthens our shared work to challenge systems of injustice and build a more equitable future.

Deep Time is an Asheville-based coffee roaster and community space “celebrating, employing, and creating spiritual community with people impacted by incarceration.” Their work reflects the transformative possibilities of community-rooted reentry support.

Give these amazing organizations a follow if you haven't already!
