    RESOURCES

    The Sisterhood has developed a library of resources for our members’ use and for public consumption. They are designed to support exploration of and conversation on the themes central to our work - interfaith exchange and dialogue, navigating meaningful and difficult conversations, proactively responding to hate, and strengthening communities through spiritually-inspired service. On this page, you will find a glossary of terms specific to Judaism and Islam, including explanations of holidays and etiquette, materials for engaging in difficult conversations, responding to hate and biased comments, building collaborative partnerships, and developing community-based service projects. We invite you to explore these compiled resources and use them in your bridge-building work. We are always developing new materials, so check back often for updates!
