Community Organizing Residency

A few years ago, I participated in a program called Selah (a collaboration between Jewish Funds for Justice and Rockwood) and haven't stopped talking about the life-changing week I spent with other progressive Jewish leaders ever since. So, when the folks at JFSJ e-mailed to find out if I'd help them publicize their new Community Organizing Residency, I jumped at the chance!

The Community Organizing Residency is a six-month, paid residency. COR is for people from different faith backgrounds who want to make community organizing their profession. They will gain social justice experience working with leading organizing groups in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, and the San Francisco Bay Area. Doesn't that sound cool?

Applications are due on April 2! So spread the word... and consider applying yourself.
