Equitable Access to Social Services for Everyone (EASSE)

The Equitable Access to Social Services for Everyone (EASSE) initiative is working to ensure that all Mississippians can access the benefits and support they need. We’re gathering experiences from individuals and families across the state — whether you received assistance, were denied benefits, or faced barriers in the process — to identify where systems fall short and how they can be improved.

Annual Wrap-Up

This year has felt like a decade. The news can be overwhelming, but joy is an act of resistance. Join us as we close the year with reflection, gratitude, and celebration at our End-of-Year Wrap-Up on Tuesday, December 2, at 5:30 p.m. at the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum. We’re honored to welcome Deborah Archer, ACLU National Board President, for an author talk on her book Dividing Lines: How Transportation Infrastructure Reinforces Racial Inequality. We’ll also recognize Rims Barber and Carroll Rhodes for their decades of dedication to justice and equality in Mississippi. Sponsorship opportunities are available. Register for the event here.
