Why the Jewish Multiracial Network?

JMN is committed to diversity and inclusive community-building, and seek to help members strengthen their identities as Jews and members of other ethnic groups. JMN creates opportunities for learning, nurturing and support for a large and growing part of the Jewish community that often feels marginalized by mainstream Jewish organizations. You are invited to become a part of the Jewish Multiracial Network commUNITY.
