About

Our mission is to empower communities to advance and celebrate gender & sexual diversity across the Southern U.S. We orient our programming around four pillars: Empower, Celebrate, Educate, Advocate. SOJOURN empowers Jewish and LGBTQ+ individuals and communities through mental health support, resource referrals, and guidance for Jewish institutions welcoming LGBTQ+ community members. SOJOURN encourages everyone to celebrate who they are and to build community together. Whether facilitating Jewish and queer community spaces or organizing Jewish community participation in a Pride parade or POP, we build celebratory, joyful spaces for those who need them most. Through our educational programming, SOJOURN teaches Jewish values that undergird LGBTQ+ welcoming and celebration. Our programs on full inclusion, organizational practices, nonbinary Hebrew, ritual innovation, and youth education form the backbone of our work. We want Jewish communities to be safe harbors for LGBTQ+ individuals – and we want the rest of the world to be that way too! SOJOURN mobilizes Jewish communities across the South to oppose anti-trans and anti-LGBTQ+ legislation. Stay up to date on SOJOURN programs and events by joining our email list.
