Maverick City Music Initiative
Maverick City started with a dream to make space for folk that would otherwise live in their own separate worlds. We exist to break the unspoken rules that exist in the CCM and Gospel World, but more importantly to be a mega phone for a community of creatives that have been pushed to the margins of the industry of Church Music. An unchained, God-breathed sound is what brings us together, and that is the sound vivaciously smacking you in the face the first time you hit play on on a Maverick track. It isn’t the sound of a community that is centered around their deprivation, it’s the audacious sound of true belonging: the beautiful harmony of a long lost family.
Justice Reform Partnership
The Justice Reform Partnership (JRP) is a collective of organizations and individuals interested in supporting criminal justice reform work in Georgia. We began as a grouping of just five organizations working on statewide advocacy during the legislative session. We now welcome over 50 statewide and local organizations working year-round on critical reform efforts.
Multifaith Initiative to End Mass Incarceration
The historic Ebenezer Baptist Church and The Temple in Atlanta Georgia, along with Odyssey Impact and other multifaith partners are collaborating on a national initiative that leverages the spiritual, people, and resource power of the U.S. faith community to end mass incarceration in the United States. The Multifaith Initiative to End Mass Incarceration (EMI) is focused on catalyzing a faith-rooted response to this issue in a way that adds value to existing work and furthers coherence in faith-rooted efforts. Our vision is for multifaith communities to exercise and amplify their calls and actions for eliminating mass incarceration in a dedicated, savvy, and impactful manner.
