What does Jewish tradition have to say about abortion rights or reproductive justice? What additional repercussions and ethical questions arise post-Dobbs, not only for access to basic reproductive health, but for other methods of family formation? How can we understand more about the threads of our tradition —and facts on the ground— so that we may feel confident in taking ethically- and Jewishly-informed stands on myriad related policy issues? Join Rabbi Mira Wasserman, director of Reconstructing Judaism’s Center for Jewish Ethics; Rabbi Lila Kagedan, a medical ethicist ordained by Yeshivat Maharat; and others —in conversation with Minna Scherlinder Morse— for a three-part exploration of these themes.

Co-sponsored by the Center for Jewish Ethics and the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW).
