Who We Are

We’re 18Doors, a fast-paced, national Jewish nonprofit with a collegial, warm organizational culture and entrepreneurial spirit. We are the only national Jewish nonprofit laser focused on understanding, connecting with and communicating the needs of Jewish interfaith couples and families. We’re growing quickly, with a budget of about $3 million and staff and rabbinic fellows in 25 communities around the country and in Canada. 

We are an entry point to Jewish life for interfaith families, and a catalyst for connection. Our work focuses on the five areas below: 

1. Digital strategy that includes a website and social media presence focused on sharing stories and advice from interfaith families, and resources on Jewish culture, holidays, traditions and food. 
2. Programs for interfaith couples and families to share ideas and learn together. 
3. A Jewish clergy referral service which helps families connect with rabbis and cantors for lifecycle events or counseling. 
4. A rabbinic fellowship program for rabbis who want to deepen their work with interfaith families. 
5. Learning opportunities for Jewish professional and lay leadership interested in building a culture of belonging with a focus on interfaith inclusion. We have local staff in Atlanta, Boston and Chicago, and affiliate relationships in Cleveland and New Orleans. 

We work to help couples and families to connect and to build the Jewish life they want, and to enrich the vibrancy and strength of the Jewish community through the participation of interfaith families. We want our team to reflect the diversity of our world, and of the Jewish interfaith couples and families we work with.
