The Coalition on the Environment and Jewish Life (COEJL) was established in 1993 to enact a distinctively Jewish programmatic and policy

response to the environmental crisis. A coalition of 27 national Jewish organizations, COEJL is the Jewish member of the National Religious Partnership for the Environment, which also includes the Evangelical Environmental Network, the National Council of Churches, and the U.S. Catholic Conference.

COEJL is housed by and maintains a close partnership with the JCPA. COEJL's public policy positions are based directly upon the policies of the JCPA, and COEJL's director staffs the JCPA Committee on Energy and the Environment. In addition to policy development and advocacy, COEJL sponsors regional affiliates in communities across North America, publishes a wide array of program materials on Judaism and the environment, and organizes an annual Leadership Training Institute-which is held in conjunction with the Plenum in alternate years.
