Katrina’s Jewish Voices

In July, 2006, my husband and I participated in the Union for Reform Judaism Mitzvah Corps to help in post-Katrina volunteer work. Attached are some articles that describe my experience: They include an opinion piece that I published in the Boston Jewish Advocate, as well as two blogs that appeared on www.jspot, the blog of the Jewish Funds for Justice.
