T’ruah’s Bay Area cluster, with over 20 active members, is an organizing home and resource to rabbis and cantors in the expansive San Francisco Bay Area region. Jewish clergy here have worked to end solitary confinement in CA prisons and jails, stand with immigrants against attacks by ICE, and protest starvation in Gaza during the war. Independently and under the T’ruah umbrella, they are champions of justice speaking with a voice of moral clarity.
If you are a rabbi or cantor who lives in the Bay Area and is interested in getting involved, please reach out to our Bay Area Organizer, Gen Slosberg.
