THINK JEWISHLY. ACT LOCALLY.

Think Jewishly.

Jewish tradition teaches that it is not on us to complete the work, but we can’t quit either. Although this work will not be completed in our lifetime, we must find steps to take today, here where we live.

We find strength, focus, and resilience to take these steps in the myriad religious, cultural, ethical, historical, community, family, and other experiences that ground and connect us to each other and to our Jewish traditions.

Act Locally.

Each of the communities in which we work has its own history, politics, strengths, and challenges. We prioritize campaigns and strategies that are best suited for each individual jurisdiction to move closer to achieving our goals of economic, racial and social justice.
