   Episcopal City Mission Advocacy Convocation

ECM’s first Public Policy Convocation on October 7 exceeded all our expectations. We were planning for a fifty person event and ended up with close to eighty participants from 40 parishes with a wide geographical representation. Another cause of celebration was the significant participation of many other organizations with whom we have worked in recent years as partners in advocacy, including the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition (MIRA), the Merrimack Valley Project, Neighbor to Neighbor, the Southwest Boston CDC, United for a Fair Economy, the Lynn Health Task Force, Health Care for All and Centro Presente. Some of these organizations are recipients of ECM’s Burgess Urban Fund grants. The concept of the convocation emerged during our long term planning process as a way to convene the ECM advocacy network with other parish activists, BUF recipients and other potential partners in advocacy in order to seek their collecti ve counsel as well as build support for emerging policy agendas.
