Kaleo is situated within this prophetic religious tradit

The world is in profound need of healing. Headlines are filled with critical issues which demonstrate our brokenness - racism, climate change, police brutality, voting rights, sexism, gun violence, health care access, affordable housing, white supremacy, LGBTQ equity and inclusion, reparations, and treaty rights to name just a few. How do we, as spiritual people, engage these issues as opportunities to deliver on promises that reflect our deepest spiritual values and commitments?
Join us for a lively conversation with Rev. Dr. Steve Newcom, founding director of the Kaleo Center for Faith, Justice & Social Transformation. Steve will provide a brief overview of Sevenfold, a model of social transformation which reframes our work for justice from problems to be solved to the Promises we serve.
