Jews United for Democracy and Justice and Community Advocates
Jews United for Democracy and Justice (JUDJ) is a broad cross-section of Los Angeles Jews who stand with our community and others to assert a Jewish voice to safeguard the principles and foundations of our constitutional democracy.
Founded in the wake of the executive orders on immigration and refugees, JUDJ is deeply concerned about rising threats to religious tolerance, equal rights, a free and fair press, human dignity, and long-held norms of decency and civil society. We will speak out and take action when our shared Jewish values require us to counter those threats.
Community Advocates, Inc. (CAI) is a nonprofit organization that advocates innovative approaches to human relations and race relations. It was founded on the idea that while we do not live in a perfect world, there has been steady and continuing progress in the arena of race and human relations. CAI is led by its Chairman Richard Riordan, former Mayor of Los Angeles and President David A. Lehrer, former Regional Director of the Anti-Defamation League. For many years its vice president was the late Joe R. Hicks, former Executive Director of the Los Angeles City Human Relations Commission. CAI spreads its vision through op-eds, speeches, panel presentations, journal articles and broadcast programming.
