Justice Reform Network
Resources
Justicereform.net has no affiliation with any
organized religion or political party.
One of the network's
purposes is to call attention to lay as well as religious movements
dedicated to bringing about legal and social justice. Included here
are four of these organizations. More will follow.
Protestants for the Common Good
A greater
Chicago area organization called Protestants for the Common Good (PCG) has
grown steadily as a force for social and legal justice through such venues
as advocacy before the Illinois state legislature and discussion and debate
among church congregations.

The Jewish Voice
For Peace
Jewish Voice for Peace represents the silent majority of American
Jews and allies who want an end to the occupation and settlements, and
who want to see a U.S. foreign policy based on justice. Through increasing
our visibility, building our numbers and educating ourselves and others,
we will make change in our communities, in Washington, and in the Middle
East.
