Join us for Repro Shabbat, as we join with hundreds of other synagogues and Jewish communities across the country to participate in the National Council of Jewish Women’s “Repro Shabbat.” Repro Shabbat is an important opportunity to focus our communal attention on the issues of Reproductive Freedom and Reproductive Justice. Repro Shabbat takes place annually when we read Parshat Mishpatim, the portion of the Torah containing verses used as the foundation for Judaism’s support of reproductive health, rights, and justice.
