About SRE Network Membership

SRE Network is a growing community of Jewish nonprofit organizations committed to building workplaces rooted in safety, respect, and equity, where all individuals can thrive and drive change. 

Since 2018, nearly 200 organizations have joined this collective effort. Together, we are strengthening workplace culture and advancing gender equity across the Jewish communal landscape. 

This work is ongoing and complex, but together, we are making real progress that will have a lasting impact.

“We are proud to have been a member since 2016, and one of the most valuable outcomes has been connecting and networking with others in the SRE Network for support and partnership. We are simply a happier, healthier, safer, more equitable and respectful organization as a result."

Why Become a SRE Network Member?

Jewish organizations are strongest when their workplaces reflect their values. 

When your organization becomes a member of SRE Network, you join a growing movement grounded in shared responsibility (arevut) and deep belief in human dignity (b’tzelem Elohim).

As a member, your organization will:

  • Publicly demonstrate your commitment to safety, respect, and equity
  • Be eligible for SRE grants that support culture change
  • Join a trusted community of peers navigating challenges and driving change together
  • Access support through tools, resources, and expert guidance
  • Engage in learning and connection through trainings, communities of practice, and in-person gatherings

This work is not separate from your mission—it strengthens it.

When workplaces are grounded in safety, respect, and equity, leaders are more effective, teams are more resilient, communities are stronger, and more people can truly belong and lead.

Who is Membership For?

Membership is open to any Jewish nonprofit organization, foundation, or synagogue in North America that:

  • Has at least two employees
  • Is ready to implement the SRE Standards and strengthen workplace safety, respect, and equity with intention and accountability

Our network reflects the full diversity of the Jewish community across size, geography, identity, and practice.

You don’t need to have it all figured out. What matters is your commitment to the journey.

SRE members include Jewish institutions of varying sizes, movements, and locations; people of all genders, sexual orientations, abilities, ages and origins; professionals, volunteers, board members, and community members; religious and secular; and reflect the diverse racial and ethnic mosaic that makes up today’s Jewish community.

SRE Network Standards

SRE Network members are on a journey to implementing the SRE Standards at their organizations.
The SRE Network Standards were designed by experts to prevent and address discrimination and harassment in Jewish workplaces and communal spaces. They are intended to ground, guide, and inspire organizations on their journeys to creating optimal workplaces by focusing on four key areas: Leadership & Accountability; Policies & Guidelines; Reporting & Response; and Education & Training.
