Jewish Interfaith Life Cleveland
Explore, Discover & Personalize Your Jewish Experience
From resources to workshops and programming, we are the only organization in Cleveland solely focused on supporting interfaith couples and families exploring Jewish culture and values.

Hi, We’re jHUB!
jHUB offers meaningful support and Jewish resources to welcome, listen to, and embrace interfaith couples and families as they explore Jewish culture and customs that can enrich their lives. Whether you’re honoring multiple backgrounds, or simply seeking connection with other interfaith couples and families, or curious about Jewish holidays, jHUB offers opportunities to learn, reflect, and celebrate. As a result, individuals and families can discover Jewish heritage and experiences, imagine what’s possible for the road ahead, and engage in a space that feels inclusive, authentic, and pressure-free — all at their own pace.
In addition to a variety of events, jHUB offers one-on-one support for individuals and families seeking personalized guidance on how to engage with Jewish life in ways that feel approachable and relevant. Our interactive workshops provide couples, parents, and grandparents practical tools and peer connection to help navigate the unique experiences of interfaith family life. For those seeking clergy for lifecycle milestones like weddings, baby namings, and funerals, jHUB can connect you with Jewish clergy that meets your needs to make these deeply personal moments meaningful and aligned with your story and values.
jHUB welcomes guests who are making choices as interfaith couples, raising children, or exploring their own identities.
Our goal is not to prescribe a path, but to walk alongside you. No matter your background or level of experience, jHUB is here to offer connection, guidance, and meaningful moments — with no pressure, just support.
Upcoming Events

We offer regular programming for both couples and families to comfortably explore, discover and personalize Jewish culture and values in an accessible and non-judgmental atmosphere.

Our Holiday Guides

Nina & Scott
Nina and I have found in Jewish Cleveland the home we always wanted, thanks to jHUB. From the fun learning tools we could use at home – like ‘Hanukkah in a Box’ to welcoming and inclusive events, jHUB has opened our eyes and opened doors for us time after time.
A Grandparent
Our meeting with you, and the Grandparents Group, gave us momentum, helpful ideas, and a little more confidence to raise issues with our son and his wife in a way that is respectful of them. We thank you very much for this!
Michelle & Dan
Without jHUB, we feel we would still be searching for other couples “just like us.” We will forever be grateful for the opportunities and experiences provided to us by jHUB. Thank you!
jHUB Participant
I think [the jHUB workshop] was wonderful. The environment was welcoming and made me very comfortable. Everyone involved in putting together this series was very thoughtful. It was planned out well and helped us learn more than I thought we would.
