At Kesher we want to help families stay connected to each other - parent to child, sibling to sibling, and grandparent to grandchild - by providing support and guidance for family members of individuals who identify as LGBTQ+ in the Orthodox Jewish community

Our Goals

Dr. David Pelcovitz

"I have seen how the warmth, compassion, and knowledge provided by the Kesher Families team serves as a roadmap for the families that instills a sense of hope, connection and healing."

A Parent

"Kesher is a safe space for families navigating the frum world with a child who is LGBTQ+. They provided tools to pave our own unique derech."

Dr. Norman Blumenthal

"Kesher Families is a bold and timely initiative providing immeasurable support and information to families in the throes some of the most confounding and vexing issues of our times."

Mission & Vision

At Kesher we envision a future where our LGBTQ+ family members can stay a treasured part of our families and communities, and stay connected to Hashem.

Our mission is to provide support and guidance for family members of individuals who identify as LGBTQ+ in the Orthodox Jewish community and to use the collective wisdom gleaned from serving and supporting the above population to educate professionals who interact with the Orthodox LGBTQ+ population.

 

We support families with a member who identifies as LGBTQ+ with the aim of maintaining relationships in a halachic framework.
