Serving the Jewish Community
The Jewish Association for Death Education (JADE) is a Jewish end of life nonprofit organization that provides education, guidance and support to people in the Jewish community, by offering access to and delivering Jewish wisdom along the end-of-life continuum.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to provide educational tools, classes, and opportunities to the Jewish community, including those who serve them, about the Jewish ways in death and mourning.
LISTEN
We start by listening to you and hearing your needs. Our active listening phase lets us provide you the support and resources you need. Our team will provide the necessary resources and guide you to make decisions that feel right for you.
Educate
JADE works with those organizations who support individuals and families by providing them tools and resources to help them understand and explain Jewish end-of-life practices and traditions through workshops, seminars, training programs and other tools.
GUIDE
JADE provides individuals and families comfort, information and options before and after the death of a loved one, to help guide them through the complex and often overwhelming process of funeral and burial planning.
SUPPORT
JADE strives to create connections where open and honest conversations about death are welcomed and where individuals and families make meaningful informed decisions and find comfort when a loved one dies.
