Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Jews For Racial & Economic Justice Action (JFREJ Action or JFREJ) is the home for Jewish New Yorkers organizing with our neighbors and allies to transform New York from a playground for the wealthy few into a real democracy for all of us. JFREJ members are working to make the city we love a more caring place, free from all forms of racist violence, where everyone has the opportunity and resources they need to thrive. We work toward our mission through community organizing around issues central to racial and economic justice, public education, legislative advocacy, and limited electoral work.

  • The New York Caring Majority is a movement of older adults, disabled people, family caregivers, domestic workers, and home care providers from all across New York State working toward dignified wages for homecare workers and for universal healthcare for all.NYC Against Hate: Freedom to thrive is our campaign working toward investment in the things that keep New Yorkers truly safe. We do this through public education, canvassing our neighbors, and advocacy. We also lead the coalition, NYC Against Hate which is a diverse group of community-based organizations working across identities to prevent and address hate violence in New York. While maintaining our local focus, JFREJ Action has often spoken out about the conflict in Israel-Palestine. We know that what happens in Israel-Palestine impacts New Yorkers and we have developed a clear strategy for addressing Israel-Palestine as a local issue. This includes countering the Rights use of Israel-Palestine to divide progressives; fighting anti-semitism and McCarthyism; educating ourselves on Israel-Palestine; and speaking out in key moments.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
