We shouldn’t have to face harsh economic realities all alone. Increasingly people are coming together in small groups known by various names: common security clubs, mutual aid groups, resilience circles, and unemployed support groups. Such groups are forming in Seattle to:
- Learn about the real causes of our economic problems and budget deficits
- Provide mutual support by helping ourselves and our neighbors to survive hard times
- Work for social and tax policies to benefit the majority of Washingtonians and Americans
THE BENEFITS OF ORGANIZING COMMON SECURITY CLUBS IN SEATTLE:
- Effective organizing tools for community, labor & religious leaders
- Strengthening personal and community resilience
- Deepening the engagement of constituencies within our respective movements
