Publications & Resources
MOSES members learn about issues as part of our advocacy. This page provides links to whole newsletters and yearbooks as well as other collections of resources. Our “news and commentary” page posts individual articles categorized by topic and is a good place to start if you are looking for material on a particular topic.
Publications
Newsletters
Our Communications Team publishes a newsletter five times each year.
Newsletters include descriptions of upcoming and past MOSES events, actions, and other activities, book reviews, profiles of members and returning citizens, issue briefings, and much more.

2020 newsletters
Yearbooks
Our Communications Team publishes an annual yearbook which serves as our annual report.
Each yearbook includes an overview of MOSES events, actions, and other activities for the preceeding year, as well as book reviews, poems, photos and other artwork, and advertisements, because the yearbook is also a fundraiser.
Perusing the yearbooks gives a sense of the history of the organization.
Click the link below each picture or the picture itself to access the yearbook for that year.
