Today, the sacredness of human life is being threatened. We are living in a moment when fear is being used as a weapon. Our partner PICO California alongside other faith and community groups in California, is taking a stand against this threat. They helped recently launch the Pledge for Human Dignity. So far, they have garnered 1,298 pledgers. If you are based in California and believe in the worth and dignity of every human being, we encourage you to take the pledge and join their ranks.
