A Social Justice Movement

for the 21st Century



The Justice Project: The March Continues is a grassroots social justice movement to inspire the communities in the northern suburbs of Chicago and beyond to be welcoming, inclusive and diverse, and to offer them a framework for doing so.

What defines a welcoming community? One in which residents and the organizations representing them ensure equal access to everyone who works, visits, lives or seeks to live in their neighborhoods.

How do we build neighborhoods that are truly welcoming? The Justice Project: The March Continues has established Principles of the Welcoming Community that set out the framework by which municipalities can evaluate themselves in order to become more accessible, safe and engaged; and by which residents can hold their elected and appointed representatives accountable.
