Martin Luther King Faith in Action Assembly & Governor’s Candidate Forum

January 15, 2018 @ 8:00 am - 12:00 pm

Hundreds of people of faith from across the Chicagoland area will come together in the spirit of Dr. King to worship together and take action on police accountability. We will ask Chicago aldermen to make public commitments of support to police contract reform. We will ask candidates running for governor to answer questions about issues most important to our communities: police accountability, restoring rights and justice reform, community development – affordable housing and jobs, and making our communities safer. All democratic governor candidates are confirmed to participate.

Please note, parking is limited at Old St. Pat’s (metered parking and paid parking lots). CRS will provide shuttle service from First Baptist Congregational Church (FBCC) at 1613 W. Washington to Old St. Pat’s Church. You can park in the FBCC parking lot and jump on one of the shuttles to Old St. Pat’s as early as 7:30 a.m. Shuttles will make return trips back to FBCC at noon, when the event ends.
