This book investigates how social justice movements define and measure their effectiveness. It shares the stories of eight diverse movements, including the Alberta College of Social Workers, the Calgary Raging Grannies, Oxfam Canada, and the Youth Project of Halifax. The work reveals that success is not solely measured by large-scale social reform but also by moments of connection, relationship building, and awareness raising. This record offers meaningful insights into the struggle against neoliberal capitalism and challenges the domination of free-market ideology.
