Detroit Jews for Justice advances racial and economic justice by developing Metro Detroit Jews as community organizers who fight for transformative policy change in deep partnership with our neighbors.
We envision a just and joyful future where we and our neighbors live with equal rights, dignity, safety, and access to the resources we all need to thrive.
We are an organizing home for Jews of all denominations and backgrounds - Jewish parents, queer and trans Jews, Jews by choice, Jews of color, disabled Jews, Jewish elders, Jewish youth, and Jewish allies... all are welcome here!
