Dozens of congregations and organizations across Maryland are participating in Youth Justice Shabbat and Solidarity Week to engage in collective conversations about Jewish texts, how they connect to youth justice, and the ways we can build a more just and safe Maryland for children and adults alike.
Join Jews United for Justice and Beth Am for a youth justice teach-in!
Jewish tradition teaches that in a just world, all people — regardless of race, income, or zip code — would have what the Torah calls dei machsoro, resources sufficient for their needs. Join us for our Maryland Economic Justice Working Group Meeting as we discuss how to pass the Fair Share for Maryland Plan so corporations and the wealthiest pay their fair share.
Jewish sacred texts teach us that the world was created with both justice and mercy. Here in Maryland, children who are charged with certain crimes are sentenced as if they were adults. That is neither just nor merciful. Join JUFJ's youth justice working group as we discuss the campaign to pass youth justice legislation in Maryland.
Join Renters United Maryland's Listening Session to connect with other housing justice advocates, learn about the 2025 legislative session, and strategize for continuing to build our collective power.
Jewish sacred texts recognize that having safe, stable housing is key to a healthy society. Join us for our January Maryland/Montgomery County Housing Justice Working Group meeting to get updates about our ongoing campaigns, learn organizing skills, and take action together.

Purim is a joyful Jewish holiday that commemorates the story of Queen Esther, who used her power to help her community during challenging times. We are packing 420 gift bags to deliver to statewide and Montgomery County elected officials. Join us in packing bags, delivering bags to legislators, donating supplies, or donating money to offset the cost of making all of this happen.
