We believe in building relationships across faith, racial, and socio-economic lines to bring about justice and address our most pressing community concerns.
PACT uses the power of large, organized people to hold public officials accountable to create systemic change in Miami-Dade County. PACT is a ‘direct action’ organization; it hosts large community assemblies where public officials are encouraged to adopt solutions to serious problems.
PACT identifies issues through an extensive ‘Listening Process’ reaching more than 1,500 members. After the listening process, PACT members vote on 2-3 problem areas to focus on for the year. Once PACT members achieve victory on a campaign, leaders put in place a series of checks and measures to ensure that progress is made. Public officials remain accountable even after the original objective has been fulfilled.
Fighting injustice is how we love our neighbor as we love ourselves.
Will you join the fight with us?

Immigration
We continue to fight for the rights of immigrants and refugees, especially as many of our friends and neighbors lose their immigration status. One of the central themes of the Torah is welcoming the stranger, which is a fundamental Jewish value, repeated no less than 36 times, more than any other commandment. The Torah states that “the foreigner who resides with you shall be to you as one of your citizens; you shall love them as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.” We take action as necessary to ensure that every refugee/immigrant is protected and cared for in our communities.
