LGBTQIA+ Pride Month Collection
Curated Series
The Jewish Education Project
The Jewish Education Project has curated a collection of resources to discuss LGBTQIA+ issues through a Jewish lens, including podcasts, book lists, engaging personal narratives, and more. We hope these resources help educators and students learn and take pride in the history, and promise of the future, of the LGBTQIA+ community.
If you are interested in exploring these topics further, please reach out to Eliana Rubin, Education Manager, DEI and Belonging at erubin@jewishedproject.org.
