Central Florida Jobs with Justice Diamond Anniversary Awards and Art Show 2016

We celebrated our tenth year anniversary at our annual Awards and Art Show this past Friday, December 16 with our beloved coalition members, allies, friends and family members. It was a night of emotions as we honored the organizations that lent support to the communities impacted after the Pulse tragedy in June, the groups that were engaged in grassroots electoral organizing and the Presidents of the Student Labor Action Project at the University of Central Florida with the inaugural Treston Davis-Faulkner Legacy award, named after our National Field Director that passed away in October 2015. With the ‘Diamond’ theme to commemorate our 10 years and also for our mentality to shine under pressure, we also awarded individuals that shined bright throughout the year. We had Syed Johnson capture it all.
