Each year, Jews United For Justice's Labor Seder highlights a current workers' rights struggle and brings together the Jewish and labor communities in a shared commitment to social and economic justice.

This year's seder - set for Sunday, April 11 -- will focus on our region's social safety net crisis, as city and state budgets are cut in ways that disproportionately affect working families and low-income residents. The seder will feature singing, storytelling, discussion, reflection, and action, as well as local workers, activists, rabbis, and an original haggadah. Planning for the seder is now underway; email seder@jufj.org if you'd like to be involved. 

Pre-register online here. Pre-registration is strongly preferred, and an RSVP is required. A limited number of tickets will be available at the door.
