About NCJW, West Morris Section
Who Are We?
There is a place that shares your ideals–a place where women believe in their heads and in their hearts that things can and should be better. It is the National Council of Jewish Women. For over 120 years, NCJW has been at the forefront of social change– championing the needs of women, children, and families–while taking a progressive stance on issues like child welfare, women’s rights, and reproductive freedom. And now, with progressive ideals facing their greatest challenge in a generation, it’s even more important that courageous, compassionate women find a place to come together and take a stand. NCJW embraces women of diverse backgrounds and temperaments, thinkers and doers who want to play a part at the local, national and even global levels. What unifies our 90,000 members and supporters around the country is a belief in what NCJW stands for–the belief that progressive ideals put into meaningful action can improve the world. NCJW is the most potent, most effective, most satisfying place where you can take that action and become a positive force for change. We invite you to join us. |
