Our inclusive Secular Humanistic Jewish community invites you to participate in our programming for adults, whether you have a child in our Sunday School or not. Adult Community activities include: restaurant club, local outings, study groups, mah jongg, film screenings, speakers series, Israel Education, discussions on current events, and more!
Our adult community is intergenerational, with members from 18 to 95 years old. We gather from September – May during Folkshul’s Sunday school (10:00am-12:30pm) and throughout the year at events across the region.
Social Action Committee
Tikkun Olam—Repair the World—is a core belief in Judaism and firmly embraced by our Folkshul Community. The Folkshul Social Action Committee organizes events to help us learn about social justice issues and informs us of ways we can get involved.
Some of the issues we’ve discussed in the past:
- Immigration
- Full and Fair Education Funding
- Threats to our democracy
- Non-partisan ways to get involved in elections
- Food insecurity
Some actions we’ve been involved with:
- Voter Registration
- Encouraging people to vote/postcard writing
- Participating in demonstrations to protest ICE abuses
- Shabbat for a Cause—an opportunity to celebrate together while supporting a social justice issue
