Our Collective Voices Are Stronger Together: How Justice-Impacted Individuals Are Shaping Our Communities

The 2026 Midterm Election reminds us that every election matters. As the nation prepares for this critical moment in our democracy, it is a moment to learn how justice-impacted individuals in Cleveland and beyond are shaping the fabric of our communities. What are community and faith-based organizations doing today—and what they can do in the future—to center and elevate justice-impacted voices in shaping our communities?

In partnership with Lutheran Metropolitan Ministry, the conversation will also discuss ways to support efforts that ensure the lived experiences and perspectives of those impacted by the criminal legal system are heard in places of power and influence, helping shape public policy that recognizes the power of second chances.

Join us for the City Club's Annual Charles R. See Forum on Reentry as a powerhouse panel explores the importance of year-round civic engagement and community involvement for justice-impacted individuals before, during, and after Election Day.
