Join the URJ Congregational Ethics Code Campaign
The URJ is committed to ensuring that our environments are safe, equitable, and inclusive. As part of our ongoing work to create a culture that prioritizes safety and accountability, we encourage every congregation to craft and adopt a congregational ethics code.
11 URJ Resources to Take Advantage of in the New Year
Here is a list of 11 URJ resources your congregation should take advantage of in the new year.
Join the Campaign to Adopt an Ethics Code for your Congregation
As part of the continuing effort by the URJ and our Movement partners to ensure safe, respectful, and equitable workplaces, the URJ is urging all congregations to adopt an ethics code that addresses the behavior of lay leaders, volunteers, congregants, and staff.
Lead Your Board Through Self-Reflection for the High Holidays
On the Jewish calendar, the start of the month of Elul signifies the beginning of the High Holiday season. As individuals, it is during this time that we begin the process of cheshbon hanefesh (accounting of the soul), reflecting on the past year. So too, it is important for your leadership and community to reflect on the past year and consider how to do better moving forward.
