Grassroots Work

This year, NBLSA will work to support access to affordable healthcare, namely, through the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Additionally, we will be proactive in supporting civil rights issues in the areas of criminal justice reform and access to educational opportunities in the African-American community. Social media, forums, rallies and media presentations will be used to inform membership about these initiatives throughout the year.

Voter Protection

To ensure equal access to participation in the political process, we will ask chapters to serve as Election Day poll monitors and participate in one or more of the following ongoing voter protection efforts: 1) voter registration forums, 2) voter disenfranchisement awareness forums, and 3) political candidate forums.
