Community & Advocacy

NCRJ has been working since 2022 to be more regularly involved in the community. We take an active role in community events with our activities booth.

Some of the activities we endorse:

● We continue to stand with the students at Newton High School in their request to the school board to include more diversity in books and authors within the literature curriculum.

● We support the efforts to re-name the Santa Fe (Newton Public Schools) gymnasium.
