Social Justice
The JCRC Social Justice Initiative works in partnership with Jewish agencies, congregations and organizations to engage Jewish individuals and groups in meaningful social justice learning and effective social action projects, most of which take place within the St. Louis interfaith/intergroup community.
Social Justice refers to the recognition of social inequality and the commitment to rectify through action, service, and education.
Social Action is our ability to mobilize on behalf of a cause – volunteering, advocating, teaching, mentoring, giving resources/goods or money.
