Creating Meaningful Jewish Experiences

Engaging Russian-Speaking Jews

Russian-speaking Jewish engagement is a vital part of Jewish Federations’ efforts to build flourishing Jewish communities. This work includes support for a robust RSJ Network. The RSJ Educators & Engagers Network strives to empower professionals and lay leaders, Jewish educators and community engagers who are passionate about creating vibrant programmatic offerings for the RSJ community, which makes up 10 to 15% of American Jews.


This network serves as a platform for professional learning and growth for Russian-speaking Jewish educators, engagers, and program coordinators who work with Russian-speaking population. Through this network participants are offered the opportunity to support each other in solving challenges related to RSJ programming, sharing resources and best practices, and exploring topics of collective interest.
