Rabbi Eric Yoffie, President of the Union for Reform Judaism, offered these as six distinctive features of Reform Judaism:

1. We view the Jewish tradition as growing, evolving and always changing, and we celebrate creative change in all areas of ritual and practice.
2. We assert that the equality of women in Jewish life is non-negotiable.
3. We draw the boundaries of Reform so as to include rather than exclude, and we welcome gays, lesbians, the interma
4. We embrace Jewish worship that is creative, dynamic, vibrant and participatory.
5. We see tikkun olam as an essential element of our Reform identity – in fact, as the jewel in the Reform crown.
6. And we believe in real partnership between rabbis and lay people as essential to our Jewish future.
