PILLARS OF THE COMMUNITY

Creating a Structure of Support

Pillars of the Communicate advocates for communities and people negatively impacted by law enforcement and the punishment system.

FEATURED PROGRAM

The Musalla

Our musalla (place of prayer) is where we hold most of our islamic services that fall outside of our community work. In addition to being a place for muslims and non-muslims to learn about the centrality of justice and human dignity in Islam, it is also a place for quite reflection and a refuge from the constant pressures of the material world.
