Welcome!

You made our Climate Change Forum a success

We thank the Ventura County Community Foundation for its extensive support for the forum. We thank our speakers for the constructive, challenging conversations they brought to the community.

And we thank YOU, our community, for believing climate change and its impact on Ventura County are important issues. We know every person who attended came away with valuable insights for starting conversations in their own neighborhoods.

Climate Change: It’s Here in Ventura County

You’ve seen the fire, floods and droughts. You know Ventura County is experiencing climate change in all its forms. The future of our agriculture, military bases, economy and people’s lives are at risk.

But the situation isn’t hopeless, nor are we the people helpless! Justice for All Ventura County, along with the Ventura County Community Foundation, hosted a panel discussion so the community could learn how climate change is affecting us and what we can do about it.

We at Justice for All Ventura County will continue to not only host discussions on vital issues, but alert you to efforts sponsored by our partner organizations too. Checkout our past collaborations, including photos from the Climate Change forum.

Meanwhile, back in January 2024…

The community made Ventura County’s 2024 Women’s Rally & March a success! Two hundred marchers braved sprinkles, drizzle and — for a short time — even rain, because all of us felt a duty to stand against the forces that seek to roll back women’s rights by more than a half-century. Checkout what the community achieved at the 2024 Women’s March…

Ventura County’s 8th Annual Women’s Rally & March

Ventura County’s 2024 march was its most ambitious yet, featuring education workshops for community activists to train and advocate for reproductive, environmental and democratic rights in 2024, as well as action sessions for signing postcards, donating books and registering new voters.

Why did the 2024 Women’s March matter this year?

Since 2024 is an election year, we know that the community fears how the outcome in November may mean the difference between democracy and future autocracy. A large turnout ensured our voices were heard, especially in the face of recent stories like these…

Scholastic Bows to Book Ban Pressure, Allows Schools to Exclude Diverse Titles from Fairs: Caving to the far right, Scholastic now allows schools to ban ANY book on Black Americans from its book fairs.

The Coming Supreme Court Power Grab: The Supreme Court’s unelected far-right majority is prepping to hear three cases that will enable it to seize even more rights from women.

New Doctors Are Avoiding States With Abortion Bans, Threatening More Maternal Care Deserts: Most OBGYNs are women. Those living in anti-choice states are EIGHT TIMES likelier to move out, to protect their own reproductive safety.

What was new at the 2024 Women’s March?

Standing in solidarity with democratic, environmental and women’s rights is how we stand strong together. Here are the activities we hosted at our rally, empowering the community to make a difference in 2024…

Banned Books: Extremists are cranking up their efforts to ban books about BIPOC and LGBTQ people from libraries. We’re doing the opposite: collecting donations of such books for local libraries!*

Postcard Writing: Local special elections are happening across the country in February. Activate America is hosting a free postcard-writing session so you can help with turning out low-propensity voters who’ll make a difference in these special elections.

Voter Registration: The League of Women Voters is helping to register local voters like yourself in time for November… because with so much at stake, 2024 may be the most pivotal election of our lives!
