NCJW Advocate
Engagement Opportunities
For 125 years, NCJW advocates have been at the front of fighting for abortion access in our communities. We come from a legacy of strong Jewish women paving the way to a more equitable future. As we work to engage our Jewish communal and spiritual leaders, we need everyone to show up and speak out for reproductive rights as people of faith.
We know that you, our advocates across the country, are already engaged in coalitions to fight for reproductive rights and in relationship with religious leaders on this critical issue. We invite you to join us in working in relationship with rabbis in your community to take action on reproductive rights.

Join us to take action in the NCJW’s Rabbis for Reproductive Rights campaign:
ASK your rabbi to sign the pledge
to speak up for reproductive rights.
One huge way to ensure your rabbi is plugged into resources and supported when advocating for reproductive rights is to ask them to join our national campaign call to action for rabbis. Check out NCJW’s Courageous Conversations guide. You can also find a sample email here.
ORGANIZE an event on reproductive health,
rights, and justice and invite your rabbi to speak.
This not only creates an opportunity for your rabbi to speak out, it also will further educate your community about this critical issue. Consider also inviting reproductive health care providers, reproductive justice movement leaders, and advocates who are most impacted by the current reality.
WRITE an op-ed about why reproductive rights matter
to us as Jews.
We can help change the faith narrative around abortion and reproductive rights as a whole by sharing why we, as Jewish advocates, support abortion access because of our faith values, not despite them.
SPEAK OUT on social media using these sample tweets and Facebook posts.
Sharing our experiences and thoughts on social media is another way we can shift the narrative around what people of faith think about abortion and reproductive rights.
