NCJW MA approaches our work Jewishly and through the intersections of gender, economic, and racial justice to center those most impacted.

We work to support laws to advance the wellbeing and status of women, children and families , enhance Jewish life, and ensure and advance individual and civil rights. Following the Jewish tradition of tikkun olam, we work to ensure that we all have the same rights, privileges, and freedoms.

access to abortion

Abortion Access

We believe pregnant people have a right to make deeply personal decisions about abortion, and our faith impels us to support them compassionately. NCJW MA works to bring Jewish values of equity and equality into conversations about abortion policy.

voting rights

Voting Rights

We believe that our government will be more representative when more of us can vote. Informed by Jewish values of fairness, NCJW MA works to ensure that no group is prevented from casting ballots on the basis of poverty, race, neighborhood, or gender. We are especially concerned about felon disenfranchisement.

social justice

Social Justice

Torah teaches us to care for the poor, the sick, the outcast, and the hungry. NCJW MA therefore takes special interest in policies concerning labor rights, health care, prisons, policing, immigration, and expanding access to health + nutrition.
