Members of JVP-Detroit demonstrate for peace in the Middle East.

Jewish Voice for Peace-Detroit
We are a predominantly Jewish peace group based in the metro-Detroit area, dedicated to supporting the aspirations of Israelis and Palestinians for security,  self-determination and peaceful co-existence. Our activities are focused on events and programs which help to:

• Provide an alternative Jewish voice, one not often heard:  for peace, equality, democracy, and human rights for all Israelis and all Palestinians, with respect for international law.
• End the Occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza.
• End U.S. military aid to Israel until the Occupation ends.
  
• Increase awareness about current conditions in Israel-Palestine and history of the area.

We condemn all acts of violence against civilians, be they Palestinian or Israeli.

Please join us at our next upcoming event:
