Our Partners
At JCUA, we believe that meaningful change is only possible through deep, sustained partnership. We know that building a more just and equitable world requires collaboration across communities, faiths, and movements. That’s why we work shoulder to shoulder with grassroots coalitions and Jewish congregations in Chicago, Illinois and around the country — because none of us can do this work alone.
Our partners are central to our vision of collective liberation. In coalition with grassroots organizations, we organize for systemic change our campaigns for immigration justice, community safety, and housing and economic justice. Through our partnerships with Jewish congregations, we activate and deepen the local Jewish community’s commitment to justice, bringing our values into action.
