John, you're invited!

Please join us this month as we honor the accomplishments and contributions of our outgoing executive director Bob Libal.  We will be celebrating the organization's history and future with two events featuring shared food, drinks, and memories:

  • New York City, Tuesday, February 25 from 7:30-9:30 PM
  • Austin, Thursday, February 27th from 6-8 PM

Grassroots Leadership grew significantly under Bob's direction, and we are deeply grateful to him for his 16 years of continued commitment to building a world where mass incarceration and immigration detention are things of the past. 

As with all journeys, it's important to remember where we have come from, to appreciate where we are, and to celebrate where we're going. While we're certainly sad to be losing such a cherished and recognized facet of Grassroots Leadership's work, we're excited for the new path being paved by this transition.

In conjunction with Bob's departure, we're launching a week-long, $25,000 fundraising campaign culminating on the night of February 27th.
