Keshet Leadership Summit

Keshet partners with leaders of national and local Jewish organizations such as synagogues, day schools, JCCs, youth groups, and summer camps. We help give community leaders the tools, skills, and confidence to put LGBTQ equality into practice.

In our Jewish communities, everybody should feel like they belong.

LGBTQ individuals, partners, and families are an important and sacred part of our Jewish communities. We deserve to gather, to pray, to act, and to simply exist as ourselves in our organizations, our synagogues, community centers, and our institutions as a whole. And while so many of our institutions consider themselves to be warm and welcoming, many LGBTQ Jews find themselves unintentionally ignored, left out, or even directly discriminated against.

We love our communities and we know that our communities are at their strongest when everyone can show up with joy and dignity. This is why we’ve launched the Keshet Leadership Project: a year-long cohort-based program that gathers, trains, and supports Jewish organizations to move towards LGBTQ equality and belonging.
