The biennial Consultation on Conscience at Anshe Emeth Memorial Temple in New Brunswick, brings social justice issues to the forefront of our awareness and empowers our community to action. This event attracts some of the most important voices engaged in the work of social justice to educate us and teach us how to become more involved.

This year’s program is now on a state-wide level in cooperation with the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism (the RAC) and its state affiliate, RAC-NJ. The RAC mobilizes around federal, state, and local legislation and organizes communities to create a world overflowing with justice, compassion, and peace.

Join with fellow Jews from across New Jersey as we engage with the Torah’s commandment to pursue justice and peace, and learn about the most crucial issues facing the world today.
