Limmud North America enriches and uplifts Jewish communities, connecting Jews of all backgrounds with transformative learning and one another.
In an increasingly fractured world, Limmud promotes an optimistic alternative: the possibility of a diverse, cohesive Jewish community rooted in the importance of celebrating and learning from difference.
Through local programs, conferences, and convenings across North America, in-person and virtual, we connect the dots in Jewish living, elevating curiosity and embracing ongoing commitment to Jewish learning.
Our Festival of Jewish Ideas programs convene individuals from across the spectrum of religious practices and ethnic backgrounds in order to build connections and propel participants forward on their Jewish journeys.
Every year, we engage more than 15,000 people through programs big and small, enabling Jews across North America to live empowered, inspired and enriched lives, connected with each other across communal divides and differences, and equipped to be co-creators of their personal Jewish futures.

Jewish learning is the vehicle through which we build community and transform lives.
At the core of our work is a shared commitment to 10 values that underpin our programs and organizational identity. These values manifest our vision for a Jewish community more connected, more inclusive, and more empowered.
