Abstract:

This report assesses the field of Jewish social justice. It analyzes the field in general and the challenges faced in broadening its scope. The authors hold that the field is at a tipping point: it has immense opportunity to grow and bring more Jews and Jewish organizations into Jewish social justice work. They offer eight recommendations to further grow and develop the field.
