Unitarian Universalist Service Committee
The Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC) is a nonsectarian organization that advances human rights and social justice in the United States and around the world. We envision a world free from oppression and injustice, where all can realize their full human rights.
UUSC is an associate member of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), but receives no general financial support from the UUA. Neither does it receive funding from federal or state governments or institutions, ensuring our independent voice. Through a combination of advocacy, education, and partnerships with grassroots organizations, UUSC supports programs and policies that promote workers’ rights, advance the human right to water, defend civil liberties, and preserve the rights of those affected by humanitarian crises.
Campaigns and Actions
Through targeted advocacy campaigns, UUSC bolsters its work with grassroots organizations by seeking to achieve systemic change at the highest levels. UUSC’s campaigns provide members and supporters strategic opportunities to contribute directly to efforts to achieve positive change. These range from contacting elected representatives and other government officials to press for specific policy objectives, to taking part in marches and protests.
