Jewmanity is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing comprehensive support to individuals suffering from PTSD due to war, anti-Semitism, and other traumatic experiences. Our mission is to restore dignity, resilience, and a sense of humanity to Jewish people who have faced profound challenges, ensuring they receive the care, understanding, and resources necessary to heal and thrive.

We strive to foster a compassionate community where every individual can reconnect with their identity and humanity, empowering them to lead fulfilling lives.

The WHY

A VALUES INFORMED APPROACH

  • RESPECT

    We honor the dignity and humanity in every person we serve.

  • CURIOSITY

    Our approach to healing is rooted in the recognition that we are learning alongside each other.

  • COMPASSION

    The literal definition of compassion is “to suffer together.” We aim to reduce the suffering through shared experiencing.

  • AWARENESS

    We promote mindfulness and understanding of the diverse experiences and challenges faced by those we serve.

  • CONNECTION

    We build meaningful relationships that strengthen community and foster healing.

  • INTEGRITY

    We maintain the highest standards of honesty and transparency in all our actions.

  • COURAGE

    We aim to find strength in the face of pain or grief. We aim to confront what is the most challenging with an open heart.

  • RESPONSIBILITY

    Drawing inspiration from the Talmudic quote: “you are not obligated to finish the work, but you are not free to neglect it either,” we aim not to solve every problem, but rather contribute our best selves in the face of an unknown outcome.
