Our Story

NCCJ was founded in 1927 as the National Conference for Christians and Jews, in response to anti-Catholic sentiment being expressed during Al Smith’s run for the Democratic nomination. Its founders included prominent social activists such as Jane Addams and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Charles Evans Hughes who dedicated the organization to bringing diverse people together to address this country’s interfaith divisions. Several years later NCCJ expanded its work to include all issues of social justice including race, class, gender equity, sexual orientation and the rights of people with different abilities. In the 1990’s, the name was changed to the National Conference for Community and Justice to better reflect the breadth and depth of its mission, the growing diversity of our country and our need to be more inclusive. Here in Connecticut/Western Massachusetts we are proud to have been the first NCCJ region established in the country. With a 90-year history, the NCCJ continues to draw upon its proud tradition of championing the cause of social justice, advancing equality, promoting justice and building inclusive communities for all.
