Communal Loss and Adaptation Project (CLAP) awarded seed funding
I am thrilled to announce that the Communal Loss and Adaptation Project (CLAP) was awarded seed funding from the Rise Up Initiative: Nourishing the Soul of Jewish Justice.
CLAP will join a vibrant cohort of Jewish thought leaders bringing spirituality to justice work in 2022. CLAP provides Jewish spiritual care for communal loss, centers the adaptive wisdom of frontline queer, disabled, and BIPOC communities, and honors the universal human need to be witnessed in grief.
CLAP is a project of Svara: A Traditionally Radical Yeshiva. Svara’s mission is to empower queer and trans people to expand Torah and tradition through the spiritual practice of Talmud study.
