April 2021

• Juneteenth booth at an event in ABQ. 
  • More information is needed before this is planned out for the SJC to be a part of everyone on the committee who is willing to pending more information.  

• Rio Rancho Snack Pack/ Feed the Kids. 
  • About half a dozen individuals have volunteered from the congregation to work with this program. Sherry Nofke has volunteered to help set up and organize. 

• Sherry and Rev. Nancy met with Karen and Kitty from the existing program, and there has been a redefinition of what UUWC’s role would be. There would not be a full turnover of the program but a partnership with an already existing group.  When UUWC opens up for in-person services Karen would be willing to speak on this program, and pictures will be taken for multimedia experience. 
• PRIDE
  • Looking into what PRIDE looks like this year. 

• Little Library

• Schools are still in too much chaos for this program to happen at the moment. The school contact point has been in communication.  

• Other ideas are that the UUWC could work with the city and host libraries in the park. 

• We need a few assembled and possibly will have an onsite “class” on building in the summer. 

• Microplastics

• Village in the Village. 
  • Rides, house repairs, network of people helping to keep elderly and disabled people to stay in their home.  Depending on the location membership is either paid or free.  This could be a starting point for our community. 
• Indigenous Lands 
  • The SJC will continue to find this information,
