With a focus on education, outreach, advocacy, and support, SOJOURN offers a range of workshops and experiences to equip students, teachers, and communities with the tools to create inclusive environments for gender and sexually diverse individuals. From publishing resource guides to collaborating with Jewish organizations across the South, SOJOURN has been instrumental in fostering greater understanding and acceptance.
As an independent nonprofit, SOJOURN has made significant strides over the past decade, marked by memorable moments and milestones. From engaging Jewish organizations in Birmingham, AL, to working with communities in Jackson, MS, SOJOURN has expanded its reach and impact throughout the region. Through initiatives like the Early Development for Gender Equity program (EDGE) and collaborations with national coalitions, SOJOURN continues to be a premier resource for Jewish and LGBTQ education, outreach, and advocacy, providing a home on the journey to full inclusion.
