J Street is the political home for pro-Israel, pro-peace Americans. The organization gives political voice to mainstream American Jews and other supporters of Israel who, informed by their progressive and Jewish values, believe that a two-state solution to the Israeli- Palestinian conflict is essential to Israel’s survival as the national home of the Jewish people and as a vibrant democracy. J Street’s mission is two-fold: first, to advocate for urgent American diplomatic leadership to achieve a two-state solution and a broader regional, comprehensive peace and, second, to ensure a broad debate on Israel and the Middle East in national politics and the American Jewish community.
J Street St. Louis is the local grassroots arm of J Street. The mission of J Street St. Louis is to amplify, promote, and organize around the J Street mission by building and expanding the base of J Street supporters, advocating to Members of Congress, working with Rabbis, synagogues, and communal institutions, and organizing events and programming at the community level.
