For decades Adath Israel has striven to be a community where LGBTQ+ folks feel not only welcomed, but valued. Joining the Shivyon Equality Project was an extension of that longstanding commitment to equity and belonging and helped us see areas where we could improve…We reviewed our by-laws, forms, and communications to eliminate non-inclusive language, worked with our library to indicate books with LGBTQ+ content, increased the size and scope of our Pride Committee, developed an employee policy handbook, and converted single gender bathrooms into all-gender bathrooms…Every organization, even ones doing good work (perhaps, especially ones doing good work), can benefit from fresh eyes!
