The Shalom Hartman Institute of North America provides change-agents of the local Washington Jewish Community as well as National Jewish change-agents based in Washington with thought leadership designed to help them tackle the biggest challenges facing the American Jewish Community. We foster a rich fabric of Jewish communal professional and lay leadership that is more deeply steeped in Jewish knowledge and utilizes sophisticated thought-leadership frameworks. We also utilize our presence in the nation’s capital to provide thought leadership to national civic and policy leaders. We provide all leaders with tools to help them lead with a confidence that stems from a deep knowledge of how our Jewish tradition provides frameworks for addressing the most pressing questions around Jewish values and American Democracy, Jewish identity, Ethics in Leadership, and our Relationship with Israel.
