JOI: The DVD
Thanks to the generous support of the Elkes Family Foundation, JOI was able to produce a 10-minute DVD about two of our programs: our professional-training work in Tucson, AZ, as sponsored by the Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona, and our program for mothers of other religious backgrounds raising Jewish children, The Mothers Circle, sponsored by the Marcus Foundation.
The video contains moving testimonials of intermarried families raising strongly-identified Jewish children. Called “Transforming Lives, Transforming Communities,” you can watch it online here:

Please alert people you know who might be interested in this video, especially those who may be interested in joining The Mothers Circle listserve. Thanks!



Hi, That was a great clip of what the Mothers Circle is about. I’m raising my two children jewish although I read alot and go on diffrent web sites I think the Mothers circle could be a great addition to what our family does.
