Our Campaigns

  • CORI Reform

    Our state’s Criminal Record Offender Information (CORI) system is broken and WILL be updated to reflect changes in use. A CORI record is generated when a person is arraigned on criminal charges. Originally created for use by law enforcement, the CORI system is now used employers, landlords, and others in decisions on hiring, housing, professional licensing and student loans. Employers and landlords who have access to these records do not have the training to understand CORI reports, which are hard to read and often include inaccurate information.

  • Green Justice

    Investment in green jobs and energy efficiency programs has emerged as a strategy for reviving the economy while protecting the environment. With federal stimulus funds now being distributed to state and local governments for these programs, it is crucial that low-income people have a voice in how this money is allocated in their communities. N2N-MA is working with other members of the Massachusetts Green Justice Coalition to ensure that new efforts to green the state economy benefit low-income people and communities of color.

  • 2010 Voter Empowerment Campaign

    The 2010 election may be the most important one to take place in Massachusetts in decades.  It is critical that low-income and working people get to the polls to make their voices heard.  We are undertaking a massive effort to register, educate and turn out tens of thousands of new voters to the polls in November.
