In our experience, these chapters of life are full of liminal moments when people become open and eager to explore. Our work meets people at these inflection points to help them make sense of themselves, Jewish tradition, and the world around them.

Our new name
Assembly comes from the Hebrew word Edah (עדה), the full community of the Jewish people. Assembly has two definitions:
-
a gathering of people
-
a process of building
And that’s what we’re here to do: to create deeper, thicker forms of Jewish community.
