We are a part of a grassroots movement dedicated to inform, inspire, and mobilize the American people to support the ideals and vital work of the United Nations. The United Nations Association of Connecticut (commonly abbreviated as UNACONN or UNA-CT) is the official Connecticut state chapter of the United Nations Association - United States of America. It is a nonprofit membership organization de

dicated to building understanding of and support for the ideals and vital work of the United Nations among American people. Its educational and humanitarian campaigns, including teaching students in urban schools, clearing minefields and providing school-based support for children in African communities that have been hurt by HIV/AIDS, allow people to have a strong influence at a local level. In addition, UNA-USA’s highly regarded policy and advocacy programs stress the importance of nations working together and the need for American leadership at the United Nations. The association is affiliated with the World Federation of United Nations Associations, which was established in 1946 as a public movement for the UN. We are heavily invested in youth, with our Model UN's; essay contests; UN Day advocacy programs at high schools, colleges and universities; UN NGO visits; and school outreach programs.

Today, the world recognizes , an annual celebration of Nelson Mandela’s life and legacy. As a lawyer, activist, and former President of South Africa, Mandela dedicated his life to protecting human rights, demanding social justice, eradicating poverty and much more. While we celebrate the significant strides he made to advance human rights, we remember there is still so much work to be done, globally and especially here in the U.S. It’s clear that systemic oppression and discrimination against Black Americans still plagues this country.

What can you do today to build on Nelson Mandela’s progress? Congresswoman Barbara Lee recently introduced a resolution calling for the formation of a U.S. Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation Commission—an essential step toward ending racial injustice in America. Send a message to ask your Reps to support it: www.unausa.org/advocacy/support-black-lives
