Thank you for joining for the 2021 Community Pride Seder. Keshet works for LGBTQ Inclusion in Jewish life nationally and we are here to provide you with a tool kit that you can use for the entirety of this Seder and other LGBTQ programs through Pride and to use in your day-to-day life to be more inclusive and equitable for all LGBTQ+ people in your community.

As educators for LGBTQ+ equality and belonging, we hear a lot about allyship. We want to share some core definitions and tools with you to support your work in actively strengthening and building LGBTQ+ affirming communities where every individual can be seen and valued.
