Join the Mishkan Local Action Team for a different kind of Jewish learning — exploring how our city works and how we can work for our city. Rooted in Jewish values of justice, responsibility, and collective action, we’ll dig into the structure of Chicago’s government — from elected officials to the city budget — and how these systems shape our daily lives. Engaging in elections and voting isn’t just civic duty — it’s a Jewish value. When we learn together as a community, we become the most informed, powerful advocates we can be. Chicago is known as “The City that Works” — and when we organize, we can make it work for everyone.
