Dominique Davis, founder of Community Passageways (CP) in south Seattle, returns as our speaker on October 25. He is on the front lines of dismantling racism in juvenile justice in King County. Dom will be speaking on “The Role of the Church in a Time of Peril” – In his words, “If we look at the New Testament we would see that Jesus was almost never in a church, he was the church!!! He stood for equality, justice, and RIOTOUSNESS!!! Where is the church in the modern day fight for these issues?”

CP is a Seattle based nonprofit founded in 2017 with a vision for zero youth incarceration. As a felony diversion and prevention program, CP is leading the way in reimagining and actively creating an alternative to today’s criminal legal system.
