Many Jews are committed to pursuing economic, racial, and social justice here in our region, grounded in the biblical command “tzedek tzedek tirdof / justice, justice you shall pursue.” But how, in practical terms, do we pursue justice? What do we actually do to move from the world as it is now to the world we want to live in? Join JUFJ for our Tzedek Organizing Training program, Sundays in January, 2026.
Jewish sacred texts teach us that the world was created with both justice and mercy. Here in Maryland, children who are charged with certain crimes are sentenced as if they were adults. That is neither just nor merciful. Join JUFJers from across Maryland for our Youth Justice Working Group Meeting to learn, strategize, and take action for the 2026 Maryland Legislative Session. Everyone is welcome.
All people, no matter where they were born or what language they speak, should be able to live safely and without fear. Join JUFJers from across Maryland for our Immigrant Justice Working Group Meeting to learn, strategize, and take action for the 2026 Maryland Legislative Session. Everyone is welcome.
