Justice and Community Engagement
The Justice and Community Engagement Ministry centers the work of equity and justice through community programs, advocacy groups, and educational events. Lake B’s desire for human flourishing moves far beyond our campus and embraces communities throughout the Highline area. We believe that mutual partnerships with diverse people require thoughtful participation at the local level through conversation, education, and action.
