Congregations are at the forefront of the Reform Movement's social action work, from direct service to local advocacy. With the help of our clergy and congregations, the work of the Religious Action Center has been able to grow and make a positive impact in communities around North America.

Join our Moral Leadership in Challenging Times series. As Jewish clergy, your spiritual and moral leadership is more important—and more complicated—than ever. In these increasingly charged times, your community looks to you to help create a society of wholeness, justice, and compassion. To support your leadership, we invite you to join this series of interactive virtual sessions designed to provide new perspectives, impactful learning, and meaningful connection. Together, we’ll engage in robust discussions, small group reflections, and practical skill-building to replenish your spirit, strengthen your resolve, and empower you to lead with clarity and compassion. Let’s meet the challenges together!
