Georgia State Legislative Advocacy: Get Involved


This is a statewide organization of UUs who work during the Georgia General Assembly to alert us about bills that are supportive of our values or bills that may be counter to our values.  We also work throughout the year, which will be important this year with all the positions open in our mid-term election.

Join Side With Love January 19-February 16

for 30 Days of Love 2026!

This year's theme is Love At The Center:

Reimagining the World As It Could Be.


At a time when fear, violence, and extraction dominate our politics and our planet, we practice another way. We believe love is not fragile; it is fierce. It grounds our organizing, fuels our imagination, and sustains our communities. Over five weeks, we will move through a journey from imagination to action, rooting our freedom dreams in faith and bringing them to life in our world.


Each week there will be a written reflection from Side With Love staff, a conversation with a UU theologian, a multigenerational family activity, reflection questions for journaling, a meditative body practice, and a coloring sheet connected to the weekly theme.


Visit Side With Love to learn more and sign up to receive an email and/or text when each week's resources are AVAILABLE HERE.


Weekly themes are:


Week 1: Reimagining Thriving

Week 2: Grounding in Context

Week 3: Mobilizing Action

Week 4: Nurturing Community

Week 5: Exploring Possibilities

Community Helping Place


Friends,

Please help us improve Georgia’s food insufficiency for children, which ranks at #4 in the nation. Our shelves look good this week, but we do need a variety of jelly, non-high fructose corn syrup, please.


In faith,

Melanie
