Jewish Mosaic is currently assembling an LGBT-inclusive curriculum library in both Web and print-based formats, as well as an interactive Web-based guide to transgender issues using traditional Jewish texts.

Nonprofit Consulting on LGBT Issues: Jewish Mosaic provides consulting services to Jewish communal organizations (synagogues, JCC’s, day schools, etc) to help them initiate or expand LGBT-outreach programs and to modify their existing programs, policies to be inclusive of LGBT Jews and their families.

Sexual and Gender Diversity Training: In collaboration with the Anti-Defamation League’s A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE INSTITUTE, Jewish Mosaic’s national roster of diversity trainers provides diversity training workshops focused on sexual orientation and gender diversity. These workshops help organizations foster inclusive environments that are welcoming to LGBT Jews, their families and allies. To find a diversity trainer near you please visit People
