Opportunities for Action

JUFJ’s Montgomery County team works in coalition with partners to build power and push for a County where everyone has what they need to live and thrive. We mobilize the Jewish community to win local campaigns for racial and economic justice. Our current campaigns range from reimagining public safety, to advocating for a moral budget, to fighting for stronger protections for renters.

We strive to build community through partnerships with Jewish congregations and through educational programs that explore taking action for social justice within a Jewish framework.

We are a member organization of the Silver Spring Justice Coalition, the MORE Network, and the Montgomery County Defund and Reinvest Coalition. We also partner with JUFJers from across Maryland on statewide issues focusing on labor and housing justice, immigrant rights, justice system reform, and more.
