Would you be willing to team up with Yachad and the Orthodox Union in February to do something dramatic on behalf of one million Jews?

About one in five Americans have some sort of disability, a ratio which is surely the same within the Jewish community. That means that close to one million Jews have to overcome some sort of barrier if they want to be included in Jewish life. During North American Inclusion Month (NAIM), February, the Orthodox Union and its agency Yachad will partner with you to provide opportunities for your community to learn how—together—we can change things.

WHAT IS THE MISSION OF NAIM? The mission of NAIM is to develop sensitivity and knowledge of what it means to live with disabilities, and to educate communities on how they can do their part to make sure all Jews are properly included in all facets of Jewish life. HOW CAN MY COMMUNITY GET INVOLVED WITH NAIM? Visit www.naim4inclusion.org, email [email protected], or call YACHAD at 212.613.8229 to learn how your community can become involved with NAIM.
