Metro Justice only exists and pursues its mission of realizing a more just and equitable Rochester thanks to our members, who keep us grounded in the needs of this community and do tremendous work as volunteers. As always, we encourage you to attend our Annual Members meeting to help mold our goals and plans for the year 2026.
Annual Members Meeting Details:
Time & Date: 10 am-2 pm Saturday January 31, 2026*

*Coffee and bagels will be served starting at 10am with voting scheduled from 11am- noon — followed by lunch onsite at noon and then further discussion until 2pm.
Please plan to join if possible, offering your voice and guidance as we aim to stand up for this community and set campaign priorities over what is sure to be a challenging but pivotal year for our organization, our city, and the country at large. Even if you're not a member, we would love to see you at the Meeting, which will set the tone for the coming year and showcase ways to get involved in fighting for a better Rochester (just please note that only members can vote).
