Institute for Jewish & Community

Educational Resources Bechol Lashon creates educational resources that strengthen Jewish identity by expanding awareness of the racial, ethnic, and cultural diversity of Jews around the world. According to our research, approximately 20% of America's six million Jews are African American, Asian, Latino, mixed-race, Sephardic, and Mizrahi by birth, intermarriage, conversion and adoption. And Jews of all backgrounds, who are growing up in a diverse and interconnected world, value diversity and inclusion. Jews are a multicultural people who live around the world, yet there are very few Jewish educational resources that adequately address the demographic reality of contemporary Jewish life. Our educational resources provide skills, tools, and expertise to navigate different cultural spaces in a Jewish context.
