- Jewish Professionals Institute
- The Jewish Professionals Institute (J.P.I.) was established in the 1980s to provide mature, sophisticated Jewish adults engaged in modern professions the opportunity to get acquainted with their heritage. So many Jews have succeeded as lawyers, doctors, accountants, M.B.A.'s, Ph.D.'s, and other areas of academic life, but have not had the opportunity to study Hebrew and Judaism on an equally mature level. J.P.I. is an organization dedicated to adult Jewish education and has on staff dedicated Jewish educators who are able to communicate the meaning and value of Judaism to the modern Jewish professional. Through free lunch hour classes, public lectures, workshops, tutorials, and entering into the homes and communities of professional Jewish adults, J.P.I. provides the missing link: a mature and professional presentation of Judaism and Jewish life.

- Jews for Life
- Jews For Life is an organization created to reflect the traditional Jewish pro-life perspective on abortion. Our purpose is to provide our readers with the facts about the tragic consequences that have befallen women and our culture since Roe v. Wade was enacted into law. Jews For Life maintains that life, both born and unborn, is sacred and worthy of protection. The current so-called 'pro-choice' position of mainstream liberal Jewish organizations is antithetical to the traditional teachings of our faith.
