If you’re working to address social and economic justice issues in New York City, Chicago, or Kansas City, the Avodah Justice Fellowship is a pathway to advance your leadership in an inclusive Jewish framework.
As an Avodah Justice Fellow, we’ll provide you with mentorship, leadership development, a supportive community of professional peers, and networking opportunities to ignite your growth as a Jewish social justice leader.
We’ve been training the next generation of Jewish social justice leaders since 1998. We believe that the Jewish and social justice aspects of your identity are strengthened by bringing them together. We’ll leverage our years of expertise, our in-depth knowledge of the social justice field, and our extensive network of leaders to help you to advance your own work for change. Upon completing the program, Avodah Justice Fellows are welcomed into Avodah’s alumni network, comprised of nearly 1,000 Jewish social justice leaders across the country.
The 2017-2018 NYC and Chicago applications are now closed. Applications for the Avodah Justice Fellowship in Kansas City are rolling until all positions are filled.
