Journey Toward Wholeness
Jubilee World Workshop Application Covenant
This form needs to be completed and submitted with all Anti-Racism
Workshop Applications
It is our experience the success of anti-racism work within
a congregation depends highly upon the participation of leadership.
Given this, we wish to covenant with you around our various roles
and responsibilities. The Trainers of your workshop agree to the
following:
- To work with the designated leadership of your congregation
before the workshop to develop a program that is appropriate and
tailored to the needs of your congregation
- To work with the designated leadership of your congregation
before the workshop to develop a publicity and participation strategy
- To be accessible to the designated leadership of your congregation
before the workshop to answer questions and to negotiate problems
- To participate fully in the workshop, leading all parts to
the best of their ability
- To offer next steps to the congregation for continued anti-racism
work
Your congregation agrees to the following:
- To designate a team of congregational leaders to organize the
workshop
- To effectively publicize the workshop to the members of the
congregation, and ensure the attendance of key leaders, specifically
the minister, the religious educator, Board members, and key committee
chairs
- To provide adequate accommodations and hospitality for the
workshop trainers
- To have at least 20 participants pre-registered for the workshop
at least one week in advance
- To continue to participate in anti-racism work after the workshop
We both agree that if either party breaks this covenant, there are
grounds for the cancellation of the workshop. Cancellation will be
negotiated between the Lead Trainer of the workshop and the congregational
contact, and the UUA's Office for Congregational Justice Making. Please
have this covenant signed below by the members of the team of congregational
leaders designated to organize the workshop as well as the minister
of the hosting congregation. Include a copy with your application.
