The new Richmond Chapter of Virginia Organizing won their campaign for equity in local schools. We worked with parents, students, and teachers to create a “Parents/ Caregivers Bill of Rights,” and the school board accepted it.

We have also conducted voter registration drives and “get out the vote” efforts virtually and in person, and are connecting with returning citizens and local reentry organizations to support the restoration of civil rights.

Currently we are working on a housing campaign to push HUD and the management companies that are responsible for subsidized housing to maintain their properties decently.

All are welcome! To get involved contact organizer Rachel Hefner at rachelhefner@virginia-organizing.org.
