UDTJ is currently looking for more members! As an organization, we have a large array of activities and initiatives under our belt and need your help in fulfilling our mission.
We have split our initiatives into four separate sub-committees governed by the umbrella organization. You can join as many of the respective committees as you would like or just one if you feel really passionate about it! We have been a small group, but as we grow and take on new members we must dedicate special committees for specific areas of our organizing for efficiency and effectiveness.
Our first “New Members Meeting” will be on Tuesday August 9th, 2022 on Zoom beginning at 7:00 PM. We encourage anyone in Delco or the surrounding area that is interested in getting involved to join one of these committees and learn more about them on August 9th!
