The mission of Meretz USA for Israeli Civil Rights and Peace is to generate and promote partnership between Israelis and Americans who support a progressive Israel. Based on the notion of a common peoplehood, we focus in particular on partnership and collaboration between American Jews and their Israeli counterparts in order to help create a more progressive Israel and Zionist movement.
Towards this end, Meretz USA educates American Jews, and Americans generally, regarding the issues of peace, democracy, justice, and equality in Israel and the territories it controls.
Just as importantly, Meretz USA develops and implements hands-on programs that enable the American Jewish community, and its friends, to provide real support for policies of peace, democracy, justice, and equality in Israeli society.
