Founded in 1995, the Jewish Women's Archive changed the way we understand the past and ensured a more inclusive future by committing to uncover, chronicle, and transmit to a broad public the rich history of American Jewish women.

JWA has since amassed the most extensive collection of material anywhere on American Jewish women, and it can be accessed for free by anyone with an Internet connection. Our website jwa.org is a destination for people seeking knowledge, a sense of connection and community, and a way to affirm and enhance the legacy of American Jewish women.
