Building a Stronger and More Unified Jewish Community
From June 27-29, 
nearly 100 leaders of LGBT synagogues, national and local LGBT Jewish organizations, as well as individuals, foundations, and organizations will come together in Berkley, Calif. for an historic meeting to discuss how the Jewish community can work together to build a stronger and more unified movement for LGBT inclusion and equality in Jewish life. This first-ever LGBT Jewish Movement Building retreat is being organized by Jewish Mosaic, Keshet, and Nehirim.
JOI associate executive director Paul Golin will be there representing JOI as attendees discuss everything from the successes and growth of the Jewish LGBT movement over the past two decades to plotting a strategic vision that will inspire and guide our actions as we continue to transform the Jewish community into a welcoming and inclusive space. There will also be a keynote address by Stuart Milk, LGBT activist and nephew of the late Harvey Milk.
A complete list of speakers, schedules, and events open to the public can be found at www.Jewishinclusion.com. We are excited to bring our experience to the conference and believe this gathering will be valuable beyond the target demographic. The lessons learned will inform our work as we continue to expand our Big Tent by identifying and meeting the needs of all those who were once considered peripheral to the Jewish community but are increasingly being recognized as vital to our future as a people.
