Am Tzedek: Isaians Pursuing Justice is Temple Isaiah’s organizing group. Made up of a core team of Temple Isaiah lay leaders, Am Tzedek is the umbrella under which Isaiah does all types of justice work partnering with One LA(IAF) and RAC-CA.

One LA-IAF is a broad-based organizing network made up of dues-paying member institutions. Temple Isaiah and other diverse religious, healthcare, schools and other non-profit institutions across LA County are committed to building relational power and exercising that power to strengthen our communities and bring about a more just society. We do this by:

• Building strong relationships within and across our communities; 
• Equipping our members with leadership and organizing skills; and
• Acting powerfully together on concrete issues facing our communities.

Am Tzedek and One LA have an ambitious agenda for 2020. In order to achieve our goals, we need to build more relational power. We define power as the capacity to act. Power comes in two forms: organized people and organized money. VIEW ONELA (IAF) 2020 VISION
