ABOUT CAPITOL SUMMIT

As Jewish California’s premier annual event, Capitol Summit provides an empowering opportunity for Jewish community members and allies to learn, network, and advocate for our community’s priorities.

At Jewish California Capitol Summit, we amplify the voice of California’s Jewish community at the State Capitol.

 

During this two-day gathering (Monday May 11 to Tuesday May 12), you will hear from some of the state’s most powerful lawmakers and activists, practice and participate in direct lobbying, and have access to exclusive networking opportunities with elected officials, Jewish organizational leaders, and lay leaders from across the state.

No prior experience necessary.
