We envision this year’s IMAD as a much broader scope that allows for our allies to join us for this day, with our leadership. With new political conditions, there is tremendous opportunity for strategic coalition building but also allowing many in the liberal and other faith communities to amplify our voices/demands. The 2017 IMAD should allow for those voices but it should all be done with our leadership and our leaders. If you are a CIOGC member organization and would like to participate in IMAD 2017, please contact Farah at farah@ciogc.org or call 312-506-0070.
