Jewish Women's Archive's photostream  

The mission of the Jewish Women's Archive (JWA) is to uncover, chronicle, and transmit the rich history of American Jewish women. A national, non-profit membership organization headquartered in Brookline, MA, JWA is entering its second decade of changing the way history is researched, recorded, and taught.

At JWA, we aspire to:

* Share the joy of discovering Jewish women and their inspiring stories
* Support and conduct scholarship on the history of American Jewish women
* Provide teachers with resources for the classroom that spark discussion
* Teach others about the indelible mark Jewish women make on the world
* Recognize Jewish women as powerful role models for everyone

The Jewish Women's Archive is for scholars, for activists, for mothers and daughters, for fathers and sons, for researchers, historians, and for all who believe that everyone with a stake in history is a keeper of it and a partner in its transmission.
