Why is LGBT bullying an important issue to Young Judaea?
Since Young Judaea was founded, we have believe strongly in the values of Pluralism, Kehila (community), Tzedek (social justice) and committed to Tikun Olam (social activism). We believe a safe environment that respects persons of different political persuasions, levels of observance, socio-economic backgrounds, and sexual and gender identities is crucial to both the Jewish People and the world at large. Those who alienate, harass or bully others due to their sexual orientation or gender identity have no place in our own community. It is our goal to bring the rest of the country and Jewish community up to the same standard.
