SOCIAL JUSTICE COUNCIL

Social Justice Council

"We emphasize the ideals of social justice at the core of the Jewish tradition. This covenantal obligation frames our actions in terms of our relationship to God and to the Jewish tradition. It is Temple Emanu-El’s obligation to engage in the ongoing task of world repair. We value being an integral part of and contributor to the total Dallas community." - Temple Emanu-El Core Values

The Social Justice Council is charged with bringing before the congregation timely information on significant social problems. Council members encourage Temple members to deal with such issues through community religious and secular education, volunteerism, and financial support. The Social Justice Council serves as a resource to the Board of Directors when there is a need for statements, advocacy, or actions to be made in the area of social concerns.
