Mission

SOUTHERN MOVEMENT COMMITTEE ENGAGES IN COMMUNITY ORGANIZING AND COMMUNITY LED LAWYERING FOR RACIAL JUSTICE AND HUMAN RIGHTS IN TENNESSEE

  • In 2024, we trained over 100 young people and families in community organizing. We hosted monthly civic education community dinners, town halls, Peoples Movement Assemblies, and mass meetings. We engaged in regular outreach, phone banking, and canvassing to build support for community driven forms of safety. Through these efforts, we engaged more than 15,000 people to raise awareness about gun violence and promote community-driven approaches to safety.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
