Our grantees are generating cutting-edge research, creating innovative programs, and advancing the field for Jews of Color. This page shares some of the current opportunities to engage with their work.
Drexel University Jewish Studies and the Jews of Color Initiative are joining jkid4all in offering workshops for Jewish Parents and Caregivers of Color to explore heritage, grow Jewish leadership, and bring new rituals into your homes. Led by J0C facilitators, each session includes engaging hands-on experiences, opportunities to reflect, and support for stepping into leadership in Jewish spaces.
Upcoming sessions:
January 11 – Weaving Our Jewish Journeys
March 24 – Passover: Rooted in Ancestry
May 31 – What Does Jewish Look Like? with Liz Kleinrock
Join Rabbi Sass for a four-part workshop with Ammud, February 4th through 25th, on the structure of the Jewish prayerbook, with focus on the key daily prayers, and the differences for Shabbat and holidays. We’ll study the arc of a service, and traditional understandings of the core tefilot (prayers). Come away with a better orientation to the siddur, so you can open the prayerbook in diverse congregations and have a sense of what’s happening.
We invite you to take and share the national JOC Embodied Belonging Survey that will baseline how our community relates. Eligible for JOCs 18+ who live in the United States. Six randomly selected respondents will receive a $25 Amazon gift card for their participation.
Correlate JOC is a project to equip the Los Angeles Jews of Color community with tools for embodied connection, belonging, and bridge-building through the practices of Authentic Relating (AR) and embodiment.
