Jews from across Massachusetts to let our elected leaders know that the
Jewish community cares about vulnerable families and individuals. Speak
out for social justice and fair treatment for all members of our community.
Help restore painful funding cuts to vital programs and services. Thank you
for being a Jewish voice for social justice!
