Jewish tradition teaches that only when our bodies are safe from harm can we nurture and sustain our souls. Allowing police to harm our friends, family, and neighbors is a choice we don’t need to keep making. Join JUFJ and our partners at a Baltimore City Council hearing on legislation to help restore control over the Baltimore police to local legislators, rather than state legislators.
All of us deserve a life with dignity, respect, and safety. But here in Montgomery County, Black and brown children in public schools are scapegoated as criminals rather than nurtured. Jewish tradition teaches that the Divine encompasses both justice and mercy — every child should have the chance to grow and learn, not be discarded and punished.
Join JUFJ’s Racial Equity and Policing Team for a teach-in on restorative justice from Amyra Hasan, campaign organizer at Young People for Progress.
Join JUFJers from across Baltimore to discuss our ongoing issue campaign work. We will share updates for all the local campaigns and brainstorm on how to move the work forward.

For the past seven years, JUFJ has partnered with Baltimore Hebrew Congregation (BHC) and other local congregations and organizations to observe Dr. King's birthday. This year’s event will feature the film “Birthing Justice,” an award-winning documentary that explores racial disparities in maternal health care. The documentary examines inequitable structures and systems that have resulted in this racial disparity, as well as the movement to fix this broken system.

JUFJ is joining our partners from the Silver Spring Justice Coalition at the County Council Building in Rockville to mobilize against Bill 43-23, which would codify the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT). This harmful bill would open the door for a more pervasive police response to crises that involve mental health, behavioral health, and substance use disorder.
