Lauren Schreiber Sasaki is the Jewish Life programmer at The Miles Nadal Jewish Community Center in downtown Toronto, and the coordinator of their Jewish& program, which seeks to explicitly gather and support multi-faith, multicultural and mixed heritage Jewish folks and families. She grew up an Ashkenazi (Eastern European) Jew in Montreal and her partner is from a Japanese & Irish Catholic home in Ottawa. Their kids are being raised “Jewish&” in Toronto; where they think it is important they be exposed to and immersed in all their ancestries.
