The vibrant and growing Social Justice Team at BJBE works to address the root causes of injustice. The Team works across lines of faith, race, class, and against all forms of hate and discrimination. Our goal is to identify our shared values and build relationships that strengthen the power of our collective actions in the name of justice, compassion, and peace.
