Jews United for Justice
Join the Jewish community in local struggles for social justice. Jews United for Justice (JUFJ) is a community of folks of all ages and from all over the greater Washington area who weave together Judaism and local activism, and create a community in which you can strengthen your commitments to both. Learn more about JUFJ's current work for immigrant worker rights and their long-term campaign for affordable housing in DC. Learn about possible up-coming strikes at local grocery stores and an initiative to pass an inclusionary zoning bill that would ensure economic diversity in the District's evolving neighborhoods.
If you've been looking for an opportunity to connect or reconnect with the JUFJ community, attend the membership meeting on Thursday, March 18th at 7 p.m. at the JUFJ Office (2027 Massachusetts Ave. NW; Dupont Circle Metro). For more information, call 202/495-1945 or send an e-mail
