The Jewish Education Project

The Jewish Education Project is a leading national organization dedicated to reimagining Jewish education for the 21st century. Originally founded as the Board of Jewish Education over 100 years ago, it has evolved into a national center that inspires and empowers educators across early childhood centers, congregations, day schools and yeshivot, youth programs, and emerging educational spaces.

The organization’s mission is to inspire and empower educators to create transformative Jewish experiences, ensuring every Jewish child emerges from their formative years with unshakable pride, a meaningful connection to Israel, and the courage to stand against hatred and antisemitism. It leverages data-based insights and research to develop innovative models and initiatives, with areas of focus including teen education and engagement, part-time Jewish education, and educator professional development.

Headquartered in New York City, The Jewish Education Project serves educators nationally and globally through resources like the Jewish Educator Portal, which reaches over 13,000 educators a month, and a network system connecting hundreds of Jewish educators across North America to advance the field of Jewish education.
